Eating disorders in university students.

Abstract

Among the most frequent eating disorders we can mention: compulsive intake, anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. Of these, the last two are especially dangerous for those who suffer from them, both because of their physical and mental consequences and because of the difficulties involved in their early detection. The main objective of this research is to measure the risk of suffering from an eating disorder, as well as eating attitudes in university students.
