Premenstrual dysphoric disorder
PMDD is a more severe form of Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS). It induces behavioral and physical symptoms that usually dissipate after the onset of one's menstruation. PMDD may result in extreme mood swings that hinder our personal and work life. Symptoms may include hopelessness, anger, irritation, sadness, and physical symptoms such as bloating and breast tenderness. Therapeutic guidance surrounding changes in diet and lifestyle may help in reducing these symptoms.
Bulimia Nervosa
Bulimia Nervosa is a common eating disorder that may be potentially life-threatening. People with bulimia may binge (eat large amounts of food with a loss of control over the eating behavior) and then purge, (trying to get rid of the extra calories in an unhealthy way). To rid themselves of the calories ingested and prevent weight gain, people with bulimia may use different methods. For example: regularly self-inducing vomiting or misusing laxatives, taking weight-loss supplements, diuretics or enemas after bingeing.
Anorexia Nervosa
Anorexia is another common eating disorder characterized by abnormally or unhealthily low body weight; an intense fear of gaining weight and a distorted perception of their body and weight expectations. People with anorexia place a high value on controlling their weight and shape, using extreme methods that tend to significantly interrupt their day-to-day functionality. In order to prevent weight gain or encourage weight loss, people with anorexia usually severely restrict the amount of food they eat.
