children and adolescents, less than that minimally expected. - Intense fear of gaining weight or of becoming fat, or persistent behaviour that
interferes with weight gain, even though at a significantly low weight. - Disturbance in the way in which one’s body weight or shape is experienced, undue
influence of body weight or shape on self-evaluation, or persistent lack of recognition
of the seriousness of the current low body weight
Bulimia Nervosa
• Recurrent episodes of binge eating- an episode of binge eating is characterized by both
of the following:
• Eating, in a discrete period of time (e.g., within any 2-hour period), an
amount of food that is definitely larger than what most individuals would
eat in a similar period of time under similar circumstances.
• A sense of lack of control over eating during the episode (e.g., a feeling that
one cannot stop eating or control what or how much one is eating).
• Recurrent inappropriate compensatory behaviours in order to prevent weight
gain, such as self-induced vomiting; misuse of laxatives, diuretics, or other
medications; fasting; or excessive exercise.
• The binge eating and inappropriate compensatory behaviours both occur, on
average, at least once a week for 3 months.

bing purge
Restricting type: During the last 3 months, the individual has not engaged in recurrent episodes
of binge eating or purging behaviour (i.e., self-induced vomiting or the misuse of laxatives,
diuretics, or enemas). This subtype describes presentations in which weight loss is
accomplished primarily through dieting, fasting, and/or excessive exercise.
Binge-eating/purging type: During the last 3 months, the individual has engaged in
recurrent episodes of binge eating or purging behaviour (i.e., self-induced vomiting or
the misuse of laxatives, diuretics, or enemas).

• The eating of nonnutritive, nonfood substances is inappropriate to the developmental
level of the individual.
rumination disorder
Repeated regurgitation of food over a period of at least 1 month. Regurgitated food
may be re- chewed, re-swallowed, or spit out. The repeated regurgitation is not
attributable to an associated gastrointestinal or other medical condition (e.g.,
gastroesophageal reflux, pyloric stenosis)
