Eating Disorders

Eating disorders involve serious disturbances in eating behavior, such as extreme and unhealthy reduction of food intake or severe overeating, as well as feelings of distress or extreme concern about body shape or weight.

People who suffer from eating disorders can experience a wide range of physical health complications, including serious heart conditions and kidney failure which may lead to death.

Critically important to recognize eating disorders as real and treatable diseases

Obesity and Pregnancy

The incidence of caesarean sections in obese women is approximately doubled compared to the whole population.

Reasons heavier babies narrower pelvis due

to a build up of fatty tissue in the pelvis.
