Hi, I believe that she is also aware of it, that there are many dangerous for the body like diabetes, atherosclerosis, stomach and kidneys damage as a result of constant vomiting. Teeth can suffer. Girls may stop getting their periods. Certainly, loss of the mineral potassium is very dangerous for balance in organism. Individuals with bulimia often have also psychological problems due to the disease. They spend a lot of mental energy on planning their next binge, get obsessed with exercising and hide when they are eating and after meal for vomiting.
