Bulimia

The causes of bulimia and how we can influence

Bulimia is one of the fastest growing psychological around today. But what causes bulimia? If this is an extreme reaction to Western society, the pressure on the AO girls and women to be thin?

Or are there other factors contributing to the problem?

Can we influence these factors and the changing effects on people?

Genetic, environmental, biological, are all common factors to consider when we talk about the causes of diseases or disorders.

Let AOS look at these things in case of bulimia.

Scientific studies have recently shown that people are born with an inherited predisposition to develop bulimia, particularly where the vulnerability lies in the genes for addiction.

It shows that bulimics inherit a gene responsible for the dependence of their ancestors. This dependence can occur in various forms: alcoholism, drug addiction, food addiction, nicotine, and others. It is therefore AOS bulimia also suffer from many addictions to other substances, but also that recovery difficult.

Such a genetic predisposition to bulimia may be there but not a single gene that bulimia is the culprit, but one gene, addiction in general. And in many families, bulimia, we can trace back to the old family members suffered, the other types of addiction in their lives.

But then not all people who suffer an addiction gene obtained from bulimia or other addictions. So we need other things such as environmental factors.

Environmental factors may contribute to triggering the onset of bulimia. These include peer pressure, family attitudes, the influence of the media that creates a need for weight loss, low self-esteem and a lack of self-acceptance and body shape.

Bulimia often begins with dissatisfaction of the human body. The person may actually be enough, but when that person looks in a mirror they see a distorted image and feel heavier than they really are. First, does this distorted body image, a follow />
Since the body in the mirror more than it actually is still to be taken into consideration, the system degenerates and leads to bulimia. Ultimately, however, that bulimia to try the misuse of food to resolve emotional problems.

If a person is unable to deal with their feelings, identify problems and solve them efficiently, that person is likely to be sensitive to the occurrence of bulimia.

A significant correlation between the development of clinical bulimia and sexual abuse has also been demonstrated. Other forms of violence (physical, emotional or a combination of both) and a link to the development of dissatisfaction with the person, body, bulimia can cause the AO at any time in the future.

Strict and cold attitude of the parents and the chance to love the children of parents can show a trigger for the development of a body image in children evil, which can in turn be sensitive persons with bulimia to. Therefore you should never annoy you your child if they are a little more weight than it is a normal process of growth for this child, body shape, perhaps OSA. But a bad word from a parent or a family member accidentally send the person on the track with bulimia.

The next factor that can cause of bulimia is a biological or biochemical factors. What happens if one or more biological processes in the human body derailed. Some studies have shown that the absence of a specific hormone in the brain may be called serotonin depression and bulimia at the same time to create. This is probably why many bulimics also suffer from depression.

Some antidepressants, which can help to restore the level of serotonin in the brain to stop some people, their rage, while taking them. It could also mean that many patients who are able to stop her bulimia for a short time were to binging back again when they stop antidepressants.

Who was on antidepressants and stopped to look for other additions, they can replace the loss of serotonin, and I think you can get serotonin in health food stores in capsules. During the administration of serotonin on its own will not prevent automatic, your bulimia, because it is a much deeper problem than a psychological chemical imbalance, but it would not hurt.

As you can see, several factors may contribute to the development of bulimia. Some victims are the environmental factors that come into play, like the desire to be thin to influence the peer pressure to be thin or media to be thin. Some people have a strong genetic influences on the past, relatives who have suffered from bulimia and other addictions can be attributed.

Accuse depressed with their low level of serotonin in the brain for bulimia. But most people probably have a combination of factors that caused her bulimia.

As a result, the causes of bulimia are more genetic, biological and ecological. So far, we can AOT genes with which we are born, but it succeeds, some behaviors are caused by defective genes to control with the right methods.

To change biological factors such as low levels of serotonin in the brain, it is possible with some medications or supplements, but that does not work for all. Bulimia factor we can easily change is the environmental factor. These include a change in our attitude towards body image, our perception of true beauty and our eating habits.

By promoting a healthy environment, we can eliminate or significantly reduce one of the leading causes of bulimia – the environmental factor. Other causes can be controlled if we are of its existence.
