Anorexia nervosa in a group of Asian children living in Britain

R Bryant-Waugh and B Lask
Eating Disorders Research Programme, Hospital for Sick Children, London.

Four cases of anorexia nervosa occurring in Asian children are described. These case histories are set against the recent increase in eating disorders in patients of different racial origin. The role of sociocultural conflict in immigrant Asian families to Western countries is raised as a possible contributor to the emergence of eating disorders and the need to be aware of anorexia nervosa in such childhood populations is stressed.
