Many individuals diagnosed with an eating disorder are also experiencing concurrent struggles of anxiety, depression or substance misuse. Each condition has a unique expression for each person, and can be fatal if improperly treated.
The term ‘eating disorder’ represents any consistent pattern of eating that is unhealthy and/or disrupted. Eating disorders do not discriminate based on age, gender or status, and are a serious, life-threatening physical and mental health condition. Eating disorders are very complex, with the expressions varying largely for each individual and each type of eating disorder.
Eating Disorders have serious impacts on the body’s ability to function in a healthy way. Long-term eating disorders may have consequences on a person’s liver function, digestion, thyroid function, and more – highlighting the need for a medically supervised transition toward a healthy lifestyle.
There are four main types of eating disorders: Anorexia nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder (BED), Bulimia nervosa, Other Specified Food and Eating Disorder (OSFED).
Eating disorders are one of the most complicated physical and mental health conditions. With a variety of contributors, it is important that people seek recovery with multidisciplinary professional support and therapy. With general practitioners, an eating disorder clinician and dietitian, psychologists, and highly qualified exercise physiologists, The Banyans is well equipped to therapeutically support those seeking recovery from eating disorders.
Eating disorders are a serious mental and physical health condition and requires careful treatment from medical, physical and emotional health perspectives. At The Banyans, our multidisciplinary team of professionals work collaboratively to ensure superior care and long-term recovery of guests experiencing eating disorders.
