The disorders of the food habits, like the anorexia or the bulimia, are not any prerogative of the teenagers. They more and more often appear as from 40 years, even more tardily. Excessive anxiety of the physical aspect, morbid fear to take weight or to grow old? It does not matter. What is needed is to deal with these disease and to break the resistances .

Why after 40 years old more and more women suffer from disorders of the food habits?

Can a part of the answer be in the sociocultural pression which weight on the women: go without food, worship of the thinnes, and so on. Thus, some resistances are created against the mourning of the youth, the physical seduction and the reproduction. The women suffering from these disorders are in perpetual painful competition with former generations and lay down objectives of control and covertion of their body which are not at all impractible. In other words, these patients have hard difficulties to cross the different stages of the life., by accepting the inevitable physical evolution which accompanies them.

Which symptoms?

Each age: frank modification of the ...
... weight, repeated diets, provocation of vomiting.
More often as from 40 years old: exessive preoccupation of the physical aspect, distortion of the image of the body, morbid fear to take weight and to grow older, the use of pills to lose weight, practise of an intensive sport, headaches, gastro-intestinal disorders.

Denying in a flagrant way

Often unknow, this troubles of the food conduits are not always dealt with. It is besides generally the entourage, the spouse or the daughter, who are anxious in front of this progressive slimming or the practice of an intense sport.
Indeed, in the teenager age and in the fourty age old, these women in suffering are denying their disorders and resist to the assumption of responsibility.

This one has to be multydisciplined: restoration of the nutritional balance with a nutrionnist and restoration of an objective image of the body, with the accomplishment of a goal with a reasonable and realistic weight, in collaboration with a psychotherapist. This one makes it possible to the patients to make essential mournings to live in good intelligence with a body which doen not cease changing with time.

The nutrional approach has to be completed by a cognito-behavioral approach who are intended to correct the noxious practices and the subjects of dysfonctionanel thoughts.

It is also essential to rectify the misconceived believes on the dietetics and the physiology: catch of weight with the age, modification linked with the menopause, risk of excessive thinness, and so on.

The practice of the relaxation can participate to the conciliation of the body image

The Fat and Feed the Muscle Program (B.F.F.M.):
The B.F.F.M. program developed by Tom Venuto is not at all a hypocaloric diet. All the hypocaloric diets decrease the metabolism of the human body what has for effect to burn less calories. As soon as a food is normaly taken again the resumption of weight is fast for the scientific reason explained before.

On the other hand the "Burn the Fat and Feed the Muscle" program is rather a manner of life and a balanced mode of food which increases the metabolism. Therefore, each day more calories are burned.
