Explanation:

Bulimia is an eating disorder in which a person ranges from overeating, with a feeling of loss of control over eating, to episodes of vomiting or laxative abuse trying to prevent weight gain. Also called bulimia nervosa, the disorder causes people to always be concerned about appearance, especially weight. Generally, patients with this type of disorder have a lack of control over their food, eating more food than they should, then feeling guilty and worried and looking for ways to get rid of their food.

The exact cause of bulimia is still unknown. It is an eating disorder and, therefore, many factors may be involved in the reasons for its occurrence.

The influence of the media on people's behavior and standard of beauty may also be among the possible causes of bulimia. The worship of the thin body and the contempt for overweight people preached by the beauty and fashion industry apparently lead millions of people around the world to present pictures of bulimia.
