does bulimia cause stomach cancer?

Question

I am in my early 20s and have lived with either bulimia and, or anorexia for almost 10 years. I have recently (4 years ago) found out my grandmother on my fathers side who died of cancer before I was born, was bulimic- though used laxatives (I do not use laxatives), she got stomach cancer which she died from.
I worry alot about this, and would be glad if anyone knows of a conclusive answer to this,
(wish it was enough to push me to stop but it doesnt work like that!)

Answer 1

Hi J

Here is how to heal your condition.

Cause
Nutrient deficiencies (especially zinc), food allergies, and amino acid imbalances can all result from or contribute to bulimia, and therefore should be screened for. In addition, although in both anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa, the underlying causative factors are commonly believed to be solely due to an obsession with body fat, a fear of being (or becoming) fat, or over-concern with perfectionism and are indeed important.

Natural Cures

Diet: A whole foods diet with regular eating patterns is very important. Also avoid all products containing sugar and white flour, and be sure to obtain sufficient protein sources to adequately nourish the body.

Flower Essences: Various essences can be useful for addressing the underlying emotional and mental states of imbalance and negativity such as fears, perfectionism, manipulative behavior, depression, and anxiety. Crab Apple is particularly useful for coping with obsessive habits relating to body image.

Homeopathy: Calc carb., Ipecac., and Graphites are useful remedies for bulimia.

Nutritional Supplementation: Liquid ionic multi-mineral complex and multivitamin complex supplements can help overcome the extreme vitamin and mineral deficiencies associated with binge and purge eating and overuse of laxatives. Complex amino acids can also assist in balancing blood sugar levels, which helps reduce food cravings.

Best of health to you

Cheers

Hi there, I'm not aware of any links between bulimia and stomach cancer however it has been suggested that bulimia can cause a kind of cancer called "esophageal adenocarcinoma" which is cancer of the esophagus. Why has bulimia been linked to this type of cancer? Esophageal cancer and it’s development has a lot to do with a condition called Barrett's Esophagus. Barrett's esophagus is a disorder in which the lining of the esophagus is damaged by stomach acid. People with bulimia are much more likely to develop this condition because bulimia can cause severe acid reflux and purging obviously floods the esophagus with acid. When this happens cancerous cells can form. It is very rare for bulimia to cause cancer in this way and research suggests only around 1% of people with Barrett's Esophagus will develop this kind of cancer however several prior case reports into bulimia and cancer describe people who were diagnosed at a young age - so even in very young people, bulimia may represent a risk factor for adenocarcinoma of the esophagus. I hope this was helpful! Take care, Catherine x

Answer 3

Can Bulimia Cause Cancer

Answer 4

Bulimia and anorexa nervosa DO NOT cause stomach cancer because its just a problem of eating and weight fear. The only problem associated is that when you regugitate the food, it contains acid material that can irritate the esophageal mucosa and cause irritation and celular changes (Barret's esophagus) that in the long term can develop in Adenocarcinoma of the esophagus. However it has not been documented that a medical problem like anorexa can cause any type of cancer.
Anorexa however is a life threatening condition and you should be aware of it and follow the medical and psicological treatment for it.

Answer 5

Don't worry about stomach cancer. That's God's call.
Think about this though: Don't feel guilty!!! Refuse to feel guilty!!! Think about the hundreds of millions of people in the world with one eating problem or the other.
People with bulimia can live to be 90 or so but I'm pretty confident that you don't wan't to spend your future like that.
Without pressure, without rush think of a positive substitute for that stupid power called addiction. Turn the table on the B not by fighing it but just by getting busy with that other activity.

Answer 6

Im sorry to hear about your bulimia/anorexia. I dont think it can cause stomach cancer, altho it does mess up your organs inside your body, and they way your body works You should go speak to a doctor. Maybe a private doctor/ or a walk in clinic?

Answer 7

i don't know if it can cause stomach cancer, but my health teacher said that people who have bulimia or anorexia don't realize this but people who can't eat just have larger stomachs because it swells up from lack of food. people who can eat regularly have stomachs that aren't swelled because it's size is reduced from food going through it. it is the truth though, i'm not trying to trick you. sorry about ur problem. hope everything goes okay for you in the future though. good luck

Now everyone can cure infertility using this natural remedy http://pregnancyhelps.info
infertility can run in the family and one of the first things the doctor asks you when you go to a fertility clinic is your family history regarding cases of infertility or other reproductive issues.
If infertility is caused by genetic disorder then it's not unusual that one of the kids (your mom) doesn't have it and another does (your aunt).
two months of trying is still to early to be concerned about the fact that you might be infertile and it's also quite early to go to a fertility specialist. Go to a regular Obgyb to get a closer insight and see what ways there are are to improve your fertility rate.
Also remove alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes from your life because they might influence your chances too. Stress is also a risk factor when it comes to infertility.

Answer 10

I have never heard of any link between your disorders and stomach cancer.

Then again, if you read the press, EVERYTHING causes cancer.

I wish you luck w/ the disorder. I can't imagine how bad that is. For what it's worth, I'd hug you just as much if you were the fat lady at the circus....
