And to add to that, I have lost too many friends and friends of friends to anorexia. Its mainly through heart attacks, even when they have gained weight they are still at risk. See when you diet too far and lose too much weight, the body stops using fat for energy and starts to use muscles. It varies as to where the muscle comes from but when the anorexia is bad it begins on the heart. Even gaining weight it still takes time for the heart to repair and so too much stress, either physically or emotionally can give the heart too much work and can result in heart failure.
Very true. Extremes in either case, with food and exercise, can be very dangerous.
