Definitions
- Eating disorders are among the top ten leading causes of disability among young women and have one of the highest mortality rates compared to other mental disorders (Mathers et al., The Medical Journal of Australia, 172(12):592-6 (2000); Millar et al., Am J Psychiatry.162(4):753-7 (2005)). [4] Eating disorders are typically characterized by irregular eating habits and extreme anxiety or apprehension about weight or body type. Other symptoms may include insufficient or excessive food intake and purging, which may ultimately impair an individual’s physical and/or mental health.
- eating disorders examples include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, pica, rumination disorders, avoidant/restrictive eating disorders, and binge eating disorders. Eating disorders may severely impact adequate nutrition in an individual, and thus can result in serious harm to one’s body. In fact, eating disorders can cause significant harm to the heart, digestive system, kidneys, bone health, teeth, and mouth, and can lead to other serious conditions such as anemia, electrolyte imbalance, low blood pressure, and in some cases, death (Millar et al., Am J Psychiatry.162(4):753-7 (2005)). [5] Treatment for eating disorders often involves a combination of psychological therapy (psychotherapy), nutrition education, and medical monitoring.
- Patent Publication 20110207718 discloses therapeutic Attorney Docket No.: 15691.0017-00304 use of a cathinone, 4-methyl-methcathinone (“4-MMC”) as a psychostimulant to treat epilepsy, bipolar disorder, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
