Resumen

La Asociación Americana de Psiquiatría (2013) identifica 3 tipos de desórdenes alimenticios (DA):  Anorexia Nerviosa: cuando un individuo restringe su ingesta calórica con la finalidad de perder peso; Bulimia Nerviosa: cuando un individuo tiene episodios recurrentes en los que come desmedidamente y/o se provoca  vómitos con la finalidad de perder peso, y Bulimia: cuando un individuo tiene episodios recurrentes en los que come desmedidamente. La incidencia anual de la Anorexia Nerviosa es de 8 casos cada 100.000 habitantes y la de Bulimia Nerviosa es de 12 cada 100.000, de acuerdo a una amplia revisión de la literatura publicada  sobre estas enfermedades (Hoek y van Hoecken, 2003).  Una encuesta realizada por la Organización Mundial de la Salud en 12 países indica que entre un 2% y un 4.7% de la población padece Bulimia, siendo Brasil el país que muestra los índices más altos. (Kessler y col., 2013) Makino, Tsuboi y Dennerstein (2014)  afirman que, a pesar de que las tasas de DA parecen ser más altas en regiones industrializados como en América del Norte, Europa, Australia, Nueva Zelanda, Japón y Sudáfrica, "las conductas alimentarias anormales están creciendo gradualmente en países no occidentales."
