Having an extremely thin body or behaviours involving frequent binging and purging are some everyday habits of people with an underlying eating disorder. However, such individuals may also engage in other activities to eliminate the unwanted calories, such as laxative abuse.
Laxative abuse occurs when someone attempts to repeatedly use them to eliminate unwanted calories, feel empty, or lose weight. As one of the most commonly sold over-the-counter medications, laxatives can wreak havoc on the body, especially when consumed in excess. By inducing problems like dehydration, electrolyte deficiencies, and a lack of essential minerals, laxative abuse can quickly make life extremely uncomfortable and challenging to live.
Help must be sought immediately if you or someone you love has been abusing laxatives to lose weight before it exerts permanent damage to the body. Many rehabs provide comprehensive laxative abuse treatment at different levels of care to give such people a second chance at life.
