Anorexia is eating disorder when the person eats too little calories. Starvation and excessive weight loss can lead to shutting of the whole body system. So, death is a potential outcome of anorexia if the condition is left untreated. Correct answer: D However, if treated persons with anorexia will learn to eat right again and gain back a healthy lifestyle and the symptoms will gradually go away as the individual gets better.
