Re: Natway, anorexia symptoms

"My whole point is all the symptoms people are listing for "AF" are also the symptoms of malnutrition/starvation that's caused by prolonged calorie-restriction, whether from accidentally under-eating, or calorie-restricting on purpose, such as eating disorders like anorexia. That can't be denied."

And also a slew of other conditions. So what's your point?
