A lot people in the United States, especially girls, force themselves to vomit in an attempt to lose weight on a regular basis. Not many people know or believe this but Bulimia is considered an addiction. Since this disease is an addiction it cannot be cured by medication and is considered terminal. If you have a friend who is Bulimic and you want to get them help. Just sit them down and talk with them about the dangers of forcing themselves to vomit. Some of the dangers are the following:

1. Chances are with the way that they’ve been trying to lose weight, it will be harder to lose weight some of the easier ways.

2. Their bile (stomach acid) can ruin their esophagus. But why care about that that’s on their inside. But want to know what? That bile can dry up in their esophagus and certain parts of their mouth leaving them with some really horrible breath.

3. the Bile can eat away at the enamel on their teeth and damage their gums leading to one or more the following:

a. Make the teeth sensitive to anything hot or cold, which can hurt like a bitch.

b. Leave the teeth unprotected from things such as cavities

c. The worst one. May even lead to their teeth falling out.

Personally, I’d prefer a girl with a little meat on her bones, then a twig with horrible breath and no teeth. I’m, pretty sure a lot of people feel the same way.
