# Orthorexia
Orthorexia is a pattern of disordered eating characterized by a fixation on 'clean eating', or 'perfect eating'. It often begins as a desire to eat only healthy foods but spirals into an obsession. 

Notes from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_mUm8Ow-Dc:
- Often an emphasis around organic foods.
- Individuals with orthorexia can go to extreme lengths to prepare meals. 
- The individual in the video recognizes that he has an issue and is working to fix it.
- One individual catalogued foods obsessively. 
- One individual noted that it was becoming a problem when his food choices started consuming so much of his life. 
- People want to feel like they can make choices that will keep them healthy.
- Society encourages orthorexia because healthy eating is lauded. 
- Some individuals stop eating fruits and vegetables they deem to have too high of sugar content.
- There becomes a fear that if you stop eating healthy, everything will unravel. 
- "Raw nutritionists" believe that cooking food destroys that food's nutritional value.
- Deaths have occurred because of orthorexia.
