Abstract
Bulimia nervosa (BN) is a serious mental illness that frequently shows
symptoms in adolescence or early adulthood. Binge eating and incorrect compensatory
behavior to regulate weight are hallmarks of the eating disorder bulimia nervosa, which
can have potentially harmful consequences. Although the exact cause of bulimia
nervosa is unknown, it is most likely complex. The binge-like conduct linked to this
illness may be influenced by the anomalies in interoceptive function, notably of the
insula. Although the exact origin is unknown, scientists think a combination of genetic,
biochemical, psychological, social, and behavioral variables is to blame. Treatment for
bulimia will be more successful the sooner it is discovered. Treatments that work
concentrate on nutrition, self-worth, problem-solving, coping mechanisms, and mental
wellness. These therapies assist patients in the long-term maintenance of good
behaviors.
