Abstract
Eating disorders (EDs) include anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN) and their associated disorders. AN is characterized exclusively by restricted eating, and BN is characterized exclusively by a cycle of binge eating. The management of these disorders is often quite difficult. We will introduce some neurobiological experiments on eating disorders and mention important details about psychological therapies.
