Yes, because many binge eaters also tend to be purgers. And purging (deliberately making yourself vomit or using laxatives to empty your system) wreaks total havoc on your body.

Vomiting can tear your esophagus and ruin the enamel on your teeth. Habitual use of laxatives can make you wind up unable to eliminate without them or lead to near-constant diarrhea.

There are other negatives associated with binge eating, but aren't those enough of a deterrent? Ugh!

I don't wish to be argumentative ,but I disagree with the Islamic belief that I should be killed! " If radical atheists decided they needed to kill believers to ensure their place in nothingness, I'd be criticizing that too."
