Resumo(s)
The eating disorders are characterized by abnormal dietary and cognitive distortions related to nutrition and weight, which have adverse effects on the nutritional status and medical complications, which damage body’s state of health and proper functioning. (1)
According to the DSM-IV, BED is currently defined by: (2,3) "Intake, in a limited period of time, of an amount of food definitely larger than most people would consume in a similar period, under similar circumstances, with a sense of lack of control over food consumption during the episode."
Studies have also referred the transition period for the university as vulnerable to the development of Eating Disorders, mentioning the lack of parenteral control or influence; associating these factors with the mean age around 20 years, the sample college students, should be seen as risk groups for BED and other Eating Disorders. (4,5).
