What Is It?

Orthorexia nervosa is a condition where a person becomes overly concerned with eating only “healthy” or “pure” foods. Someone eating in this way might feel anxious or guilty if they eat what they consider to be unhealthy. 

This obsession with healthy eating can become so extreme that it can cause physical problems as essential nutrients or food groups may be avoided if they are thought to be unhealthy.
