Answer 1

Anasophia likely suffers from bulimia nervosa, an eating disorder involving binge eating and subsequent purging to avoid weight gain.

Step-by-step explanation:

Anasophia probably suffers from bulimia nervosa, which is an eating disorder characterized by episodes of binge eating followed by attempts to compensate for the excessive amount of food that was consumed. People with bulimia regularly binge on large amounts of food and then try to purge the calories by using laxatives, inducing vomiting, or exercising excessively. This dangerous cycle is due to an extreme fear of weight gain and often leads to serious health complications, including electrolyte imbalances and heart problems.
