In the context of the eating disorder, most of the affected patient are habituated in the unhealthy attitude along with the some abnormal believe to the intake of the food and fear of gaining body weight. After the various scientific studies and numerous elongated study relating to the abnormal habit of eating , researchers did not recognize any specific cause of the eating disorders, which directly correlated to the eating habit followed by the corrigible or incorrigible damage of overall health condition of the patient (Celebrity culture is not to blame for eating disorders 2011). However, the researchers suggest various possible causes of this mental as well as physical abnormalities regarding intake of food followed by the impaired metabolism. These are may be the tendency of being thin and smart in front of the society as well as in front of the colleges or the classmates or friends, which specially showed in the teenagers within the age group of the fifteen to twenty. Classification of the eating disorder: This part of the report scientifically demonstrated on the various category of the abnormal habit as well as the specific eating disorder of the affect Ted patient, which is consecutively may developed as the one of the most significant factor for the further discussion of the research approaches. After the various research program in the specific field of the eating disorder and numerous systematic clinical trial it can be stated that mainly two categories of the eating disorder are available which are Anorexia nervosa as well as Bulimia nervosa (Masheb, 2010). Though the main characteristic of the eating abnormality are supposed to be the result of the psychological disorder regarding the concept of fear relating to the intake of the excess amount of food followed by the gaining of extra weight. However, the mental abnormalities as well as the misconception about the intake of food, are mainly correlated to the category of anorexia nervosa. In this specific category of the eating d isorder, the affected people are suffering from very much misconception regarding the amount of food or nutrient ingredients, they intake daily. The affected people who are mainly within the age group of the fifteen to twenty are not even ready to intake minimum amount of food or essential liquid as per the daily requirement of their respective essential calorie (Reas, 2011). Because of huge lack of food as well as essential nutrients, the recipients are suffering from serious weakness, and as they did not prepare, mentally, it has a major negative impact on the metabolism as well as various physical-metabolic disorder and other associated dysfunction in the crucial physical system. In the other hand, the second category of the eating disorder, this is fundamentally characterized by the over or excessive intake of the food and another same category of liquid by the affected people. Because of the abnormal as well as unhealthy attitude or tendency to the food followed by the excessiv e exercise or sprout to the eating habit (Sanftner, 2011). Various signs and symptoms of abnormal eating pattern: As in the context of the eating disorder and the various psychological as well as physical symptoms regarding the abnormal attitude of the affected patient, anorexia is a relevant physical abnormality, which may generated during the time of suffering from this specific type of sickness. It may be a stated from the various scientific study that anorexia would again sub-classified in the two main part that are restricting type as well as binge type. As in the context of the systematic medical assessment of any short of mental as well as physical abnormalities signs and symptoms plays a significant role. Here in the case of abnormal eating habit some specific abnormal characteristics of the affected people treated as the benchmark marker for the progress of various scientific cultures oriented by the eating disorder and other associated physical problem (Shouse, 2011). In addition, as per this scientific report significant symptoms of the eating disorder are characterized by the develop ment of hair having the lanugo characteristic where a fine, as well as downy hair, is developed throughout the whole body of the affected person. Another sign represented as the development of the thin and pubic hair followed by the high tendency to generate extra hair, especially in the face.

With the help of the various relevant scientific studies, numerous systematic designs may also develop by which uncountable strategies for counteracting this psychological abnormalities regarding unusual eating habit may derived (Chikaodiri, 2010). To conduct the relevant research approach, researchers go through some fundamental stage like recognizing the actual tendency and estimate the real rate of the incident regarding the abnormal pattern of intake of food. Then the researchers are thoroughly conducting the all relevant literature review on the topic relating to the Eating disorders. Then researchers derived a research design in such way that it clearly explains the unusual attitude of affected patient towards the food and another essential nutrient. The research design also effectively clarifies the various physical as well as mental and behavioral changes in the affected recipients followed by the metabolism dysfunction (Crabtree, 2010). Here in the following diagram the basic path of research designing contains the various perspective of the abnormal eating pattern are represented: Concise resultant of the analysis of the scientific study: In the context of resultant or effective outcomes in respective of conducting a research designing collecting of sample is another important factor. As per this current scientific report, the researchers emphasizes in the collecting the subject comparatively young people like the age group within the fifteen to twenty. Also, the previous scientific database regarding this type of eating abnormality suggests that in compare to the older adult, the tendency is higher in the young people of being affected by this psychological as well as physical disorder.

In the other side which is remarkably ten time greater than the chances of man of being affected by the psychological as well as physical and behavioral abnormalities characterized by the unusual habit of eating and peculiar attitude towards the food and essentia l nutrients. Also, various statistical outcomes also play a significant role in judging the current overall scenario of the disorder relating to the consequent characteristic of unusual eating pattern. It also found that out of every two hundred and fifty women at least one woman is affected by the psychological as well as a mental disorder characterized by the abnormal eating pattern (Haasen, 2010). In the light of the other significant benchmark like the index of basal metabolic rate is fits lower in the affected people having the disorder of the eating pattern in compare to the normal as well as healthy human being. Also, the BMI, the index in compare to the body mass is estimated as the 17.5 in the patient suffering from the Anorexia nervosa. The researchers participating in the scientific study relating to the eating disorder suggested that continuous restriction in taking sufficient amount of food and essential nutrient may even result in serious dysfunction of the major physi ological system followed by the death (Healey, 2010). Conclusion: After the above discussion about the abnormal eating pattern, which may clarified as the unusual habit of eating, characterized by the metabolism dysfunction, it may be concluded that numerous interesting, as well as effective approaches, may be developed by the scientific study of the eating disorder. As the overall estimation of the above discussion about the scientific report also suggest that eating disorder could also negatively affect the body as well as the mind of the affected person, in later which results in the serious dysfunction in the in the metabolic system. Also it may, estimated that This specific research design relating to the abnormalities in eating habit to enlarge the further scope of the scientific culture.
