Can healthy eating become dangerous to your health? 🤔  

Orthorexia is an eating disorder in which there is a fixation or obsession with healthy and proper eating that often results in negative consequences.  

For instance, a person with orthorexia may have a diet consisting only of green vegetables and fruit juice, or a diet that consists only of meat and other animal proteins. When this becomes extreme, it may cause negative consequences for your mental and physical health.
