Overall, this paper provides a review of the long-term consequences of Bulimia Nervosa. The targeted study group is mostly among teenagers and mainly composed of primary papers or data. As the paper shows, the long term consequences of bulimia are related to gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and mental illness. Most of the consequences may lead to extreme health problems and even will increase the mortality rate. This paper hopes to provide some effective information about bulimia and its effects for reference.
