Can an Eating Disorder cause problems with your liver?



Can an Eating Disorder cause problems with your liver?

yes, without certain minerals/vitamins or food (anorexia) the body will start to metabolize itself for energy. This occurs when the liver is deprived of glucose and the body converts fat to energy. It's known as ketosis and prolonged ketosis can become ketoacidosis which causes the blood to become acidic and can further dammage the body Source(s): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ketosis...
