Ortorexia

Orthorexia is an eating disorder that differs from anorexia or bulimia in that it does not focus on the amount of food consumed,but the quality of said food.Essentially,it is a pathological obsession with healthy eating.

Sufferers eat functional,organic,wholegrain or genetically modified foods,while cutting out other healthy foods that are required by the body.Malnutrition is common among those with orthorexia,and can lead to death.
