Israeli model dies of anorexia!

Hi,

The effects of Anorexia Nervosa are serious and wide-ranging. Of any known psychiatric disorder Anorexia may have the highest mortality rate. Approximately ten-percent of known diagnosed cases of the disorder eventually die of related causes and complications. The suicide rate of people with anorexia nervosa is higher than that of the general population and is purported to be a major cause of death for those affected by the disorder. Data suggests that less than one-half recover in full, one-third improve their conditions, and twenty percent remain chronically ill.  But it's hard to say what to do about it.
