There are several kinds of eating disorders that affect our daily lives and those of around us. Some are physically caused while others may be psychological in nature and therefore both types need specific cures and procedures to treat. For this reason the medical and social fraternities have established proven "Bulimia Treatment Centers" to help the people who approach them for overcoming their physical or mental attitude towards eating and digestion. Many people think of bulimia as gluttony, however fail to realize that the two terms could be vastly different if properly analyzed. What does a bulimic person really do? Such people eat a lot in one go or as we say "binge" on food and then try to purge their system by vomiting etc and repeat the exercise several times.
The net effect is an influence on the psychological existence of such people since repeated purging of what is consumed can be dangerous for both body and mind. It has an adverse effect on the though process where the patient feels distress and can also cause other physical disorders leading to secondary ailments. Many bulimic persons also use external methods of purging their excessive food intake and this itself can be quite disastrous in the long run.

Women normally suffer from this so called disease syndrome and the Centers provide very special care to the females who admit themselves for further treatment.
