Troubled pop star Britney Spears is battling an eating disorder, one of her bodyguards has allegedly revealed.
According to the minder, the 'Toxic' singer, who recently showed off her newly toned figure, which she claims, is down to a healthy eating and fitness regime, has been abusing laxatives and vomiting after meals, reports China Daily.
Bulimia Nervosa
The term ''Bulimia'' refers to episodes of uncontrolled excessive eating, known as "binges," followed by self-induced vomiting or purgation.

"And everyone knows she still throws up when she's eaten too much. You can smell it in the bathroom," the insider added.
