Until recently, doctors only included them under the "catch-all label of Ednos" - eating disorders not otherwise recognised.

While exact numbers of people suffering the disorder are not available, experts say it now represents a significant proportion of the Ednos group.

I visited a clinic in Winchester that works with people with eatnig disorders. I am an orthorexic myself and family and friends wanted me to change the way i did things, however i didn't want to despite being malnourished. I eventually was persuaded to visit the Clinic in Winchester for Hypnotherapy and I overcome this need to be super healthy, it was a cover up for other unhappy times in my life. I can highly recommend them and now eat a balanced diet and seek the foods my body naturally needs.
It is a serious problem that isnt taken seriously enough or known well enough. These therapists were fantastic and I would advise anyone with Orthorexia to visit them or seek some help.
