Bulimia is one of the most common eating disorders across the world. It involves the person stuffing themselves with large servings of food and then trying to eject it out of their system by self-induced vomiting or laxatives, only to repeat it with another round of binge eating. But diabulimia is an eating disorder in people with type 1 diabetes, where they reduce or refuse to take insulin shots and resort to extremely unhealthy diets for quick weight loss. Dr David Chandy, consultant, endocrinology, Sir H.N. Reliance Foundation Hospital, Mumbai, explains that diabulimia is when people with type 1 diabetes try unhealthy ways to lose weight.
