Preferred term
bulimia nervosa
Definition
- Bulimia nervosa (BN) emerged in the 1970s as an eating disorder in young women characterized by alternating patterns of extreme dieting and binge eating, followed by self-induced purging episodes. Individuals with BN engage in restrained eating behaviors and are preoccupied with their shape and weight, but usually maintain a normal body weight.
