Nutrition is a natural need. In today's societies, the culture of nutrition has changed. Social-cultural, psychological and biological conditions have begun to change our eating habits. Eating disorders can affect people from all walks of life and at all levels of society. Men and women can change their eating patterns for physical appearance at the expense of their health. On the other hand, many people today can gain weight quickly due to ready-made or high-calorie foods and inactivity.

Eating disorders can manifest themselves with symptoms such as individuals' desire to have a thin body, excessive avoidance of gaining weight, restriction of eating severely, eating food and then resorting to vomiting and diarrhea medications. Symptoms such as weakness, overeating or not wanting to consume food at all, over-criticizing its physical appearance, weighing frequently, measuring body proportions, not admitting to being hungry can also be accompanied. In addition to being among the mental illnesses, eating disorders also affect the physical health of the person and pose life-threatening risks. If you think you are experiencing these symptoms, it will be important to get professional support as soon as possible.
