Anorexia Symptoms

Anorexia symptoms range from avoidance of food to swollen joints. This eMedTV article provides details about early anorexia symptoms as well as information about anorexia symptoms that occur when the disease is more advanced.

Anorexia Treatment

No universal anorexia treatment will cure someone with the condition. Rather, as this eMedTV article explains, a combination of anorexia treatments, such as counseling, medications, and hospitalization, is used to return the person to normal weight.

Anorixia

People with anorexia believe they are fat even when they are dangerously thin. This segment of the eMedTV Web site offers an overview of anorexia and includes a link to more information about the disease. Anorixia is a common misspelling of anorexia.

Causes of Anorexia

The exact causes of anorexia are not known; however, as this page of the eMedTV library explains, possible risk factors include biochemistry, personality traits, and genetics. The risk factors will be studied further to determine causes of anorexia.
