Too Few People Know What “Diabulimia” Is, But It Is A Deadly Eating Disorder Every Diabetic Should Know About by the ADA

Eating disorders are a terrible affliction, especially in young women. While anorexia and bulimia are immediately recognized, diabulimia is seldom mentioned or thought of. Emilee Wilson, a Type 1 diabetic, restricted her food intake, exercised to extremes, and stopped using insulin to help her lose weight. This powerful and gut-wrenching video documents Emilee’s deeply personal struggles. Thankfully, she is leading a healthy and productive life, and even began her own non-profit, Die Or Beat This to help others who are suffering from diabulimia.
