Answers:
Basically you starve to death!. Your body will scavenge as much stuff as it can from your fat and tissues, but at some point there won't be any more left!. Multiple organs will fail for lack of sustenance, including the heart, which needs a steady supply of energy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your bod slowly starves to death and can't get all the nutrients it needs to survive!. Anorexia is not just not eating at all, it is also ot eating enough!. Most anorexics will eat maybe an apple a day and a slice a bread and think that's enough!. After your body can't asborb any of the vital nutrients it needs, your kidneys, heart, liver, everything starts shutting down!. That's how starvation happens, but with anorexics it tends to be slowly!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Because when a person has anorexia, they start having bad eating habits!. They fear that eating one thing will cause them to gain too much weight!. The person with anorexia tries to rid their weight excessively and they end up being skinny!. Like usual, if you don't eat or if you stop eating at some point, you'll start to lose weight!. If you don't eat for a certain amount of time, you'll get skinny as your stomach will continue growing feeling its hunger pain and then you'd eventually die so you'd get skinny and die!. This is usually what happens to young women in their teenage years and it can be called anorexia or anorexia nervosa!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you need food for energy,the same way a car needs fuel, if you stop eating your body will shut down eventually, if you stopped eating for 1 week you would most probably feel very ill and may collapse through exhaustion,not only that your body would go into a state of ketosis,where it starts to use its fat stores to provide energy,the symptoms of this are unpleasant and apart from being ill you will develop a very nasty stinking breath,kind of like an old mans breath when he has diabetes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Let's say a car goes a week without filling up on Gas!. As you may know and it obvious in order to run a car, you need gas!. And once you run out of gas you don't fill it up, it won't start or won't go anywhere!.


The same with you body!. It needs fuel to run and be productive!. If you don't eat, you die, simple as that!. And you body needs at least some kind nutrition to continue living!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Mostly they die from the other diseases that come with anorexia!. Like gastric infection!. most anorexics die because of heart attack!. Their heart muscle is so weak that it can just stop working anytime!. Some anorexics tend to binge and purge!. It is rare, but has happened that they purge so much food out that their esophagus explodes!. Not eating for a week doesn't kill!.!. I have been without food for a week at a time for three times!. It just gets a lil bit cold because your body doesn't have energy to keep warm :)!. But it feels sooo horrible!. Btw, I'm a recovering anorexic :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
