Canadian research uncovers risk factors that make people more likely to develop unhealthy obsessions with healthy eating

, researchers from York University’s Faculty of Health examined numerous studies on a condition called orthorexia nervosa , which is described as a pathological obsession with healthy eating.

Lacto-vegetarians, those who don’t eat meat and eggs, but still eat dairy products, and those on a strict eating schedule were at the highest risk, according to the study. Mills said ON can lead to malnourishment and it can be difficult for people with the condition to socialize in settings that involve eating.

The team said they conducted the review because previous research into ON is limited and the condition isn’t recognized in standard psychiatric manuals for healthcare providers.

Ontario cuts eHealth, research budgets, spending documents showOntario is cutting more than $70 million from eHealth's budget ahead of a major health system merger, and millions in health research funding is drying up. More money for facelifts it seems Supposed government 'for the people' has a piece of news every day contrarily showing how they are legislatively sh*tting on them instead. Why is this woman smiling? By cutting budgets,the PCs are offloading responsibility for layoffs to municipalities & program areas. It is both pernicious & deceptive. In the process,the thousands of jobs cut will impact the real economic issue, which is low provincial revenues.
