The mechanic took it supposed to turn around and check the revision in the workshop had been done correctly, but the video shows that enjoyed the trip and went and a fun ride for him: the mechanical consumed some substance such as cocaine inside the vehicle, as you listen to half of the video, and put the car to 108 km / h on a road that was limited to 40 km / h.

| Death of the dog Laika |
When we think of the period escopetados animals usually think of great men, as the rhesus monkey equivalent Albert II and chimpanzee Ham, however did you know that the first animal to orbit our space fuerealmente a dog? Laika was a plane can living on the roads of Moscow, but was chosen by the Soviet sidereal software to perform a historical vicissitude that laid the bases for manned apostoladas (the front of which was completed by Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin in 1961). Hardship for Laika, Soviet scientists had not outlined their return, and was eventually sacrificed in popularity of culture.
After the success of Sputnik 1, the first pedantic star, the Soviets
also they wanted to make a more exorbitant torn to commemorate the 40th event of the communist revolution. 30 years of impelling an pooch then the term, scientists think today was a colossal attempt wikipedia Soviet scientists chose Laika to be bequeathed to the orbit of Earth. 30 years later of impelling an mongrel the place, scientists think hogaño was a fierce test wikipedia They thought that she might be better packaged to launch the generality of the dogs, because as was a street hooker, now would be constant climatic qualities extreme and longing.
As part of their training, Laika was maintained at a fairly narrow aviary that was the same volume as the table, Sputnik 2. often placed it in a centrifuge, which mimicked the fuss of the spacecraft. 30 years post-accelerate a mongrel the universe, scientists now believe it was a bestial questionnaire Getty Images Sputnik 2 consisted of an oxygen generator, a fan, and little else. Laika was fitted with a shampoo for his petulant child support that lasted a full week. 30 years then to dismiss a mongrel content, scientists think because it was tremendous uncuestionario Getty Images Before its release, one of the scientists took Laika to paradivertirse building with her cubs.
He knew he had not long period of history. Sputnik 2 was launched on November 3, 1957. When the orbit is reached, the rocket got rid of its cone perfectly, yet but the heat did not work examination. It is believed that Laika died between five and seven hours post due to overheating. 30 years after ejecting a mongrel the course, scientists think today was a bestial test wikipedia Initially, the Soviets claimed they had humanely ofrendado to Laika after began to settle without oxygen.
But 2002 was not even the real instruction parka was revealed. In 2008, a cathedral was erected in prestige Laika in situational consolidation in which he trained her to flit. 30 years after rushing one alorbe mongrel, scientists think because it was a bestial questionnaire wikipedia Due to the strength of the Cold War, the areas of information in general were not greatly interested in ethical issues regarding the request for a dog to the site without mulling over head rotation bring her calmly.
It was not even 1998 - almost 30 years later kickoff Laika - that one of the scientists behind the Sputnik 2 was unrepentant commission. This is what he said: "Working with animals is a pile of torturer for all of us. We treat them like children who can not relate. The more time passes, the more I feel about it. We should not have done. Not learned how convenient the delegation to be based the death of the dog. "The death of Laika is proof positive that not everything can argue prestige of development.
The situation of Muslims in the Republican Trump was
Saba Ahmed HAD spent months working diligently to educate the 2016 Republican presidential candidates on the fundamentals of Islam, When the call came.
As founder of the Republican Muslim Coalition, Ahmed is the aim of liaising Between the Philippine government and Muslim Americans. In November, she was reserved onFox News, as He Had Been Several times in the past, to discuss the election of 2016, just after Donald Trump Said He Had shutter American mosques if I Became president. But it was not His message was massive viral: It was His flag-hijab tape to strong and definitive statement in prime time religion meant His belief That shouldnt be defined by violent extremists.
"[The flag] was just an indication of my patriotism and hopefully the message came through That can be very patriotic Muslims," she says. "I was trying to show That we can all be productive and hopefully defend our Citizens faith in the media."
In many ways, clothing Ahmed Fox News shouldnt Have Been a surprise. Muslims can be patriotic as aggressive as everyone else, and as recently in the 2000 election, 70 percent of the Republicans Were attracting American Muslim vote.
"Islamic values are very much traditional family values: pro-life, pro-marriage, family values in Behalf of traditional, pro-business, pro-trade," says Ahmed, a Pakistani-American lawyer of patents Whose botched execution of Congress in 2011 Helped to Realize Their interpretation of Their Islamic faith was incompatible With modern democratic party platform. "Things that are Important to our community are very much republican values."
Within months, however, the inflammatory rhetoric of Trump and other GOP candidates Have undone years of work by Muslims as Ahmed to repair the damage / 11 actions post-9 of the Republican Party Have Their mark made Among American Muslims. A survey by the Council of American-Islamic Relations shows only 11 percent of American Muslims Identify Themselves as Republicans. Among Themselves Even conservative Muslims, just over two Thirds They say belong to, or read Toward the Democratic Party.
Anti-Muslim sentiment is nothing new in the Republican Party. With its nativist rhetoric But, proposal to ban all Muslims from entering the country, and a willingness to Consider the notion of identification cards compulsory for Muslims, Trump is building the future of the Republican Party categorically excludes Muslims.
For many American Muslims Have Become Whose political identities deeply intertwined With the GOP, the threat posed by borders on the existential Trump.
Muslims in the Reagan era
Sherine El-Abd has-been a Republican activist for three decades. His conversion to be a Democrat shows how, in the mid-1980s, the GOP was in many ways more welcoming part to People Who Their shared faith.
"Islamic values are very much the traditional values of:. Pro-life, pro-marriage family, family values in Behalf of traditional, pro-business, pro-trade" El-Abd HAD just moved to the US. UU. in 1984, at age 18, from His native Egypt and was excited to volunteer in the presidential campaign of Walter Mondale. She was cleaning after hosting a party fundraiser When I Heard the news. Former Democratic vice president Announced That donations returned from a prominent Arab-American organization.
"I did not want to be tainted by accepting money from Arab-Americans, Arab-Americans as if Americans are not," recalls El-Abd, 32 years later, with a twinge of anger in His voice. "So I Said, 'Okay, I will work for the other side and going to make sure That [Ronald Reagan] wins, because i do not want people in my community ignored and overlooked.'"
Sherine El-Abd an event 2011 New Jersey Federation of Republican Women Follow NJFRW / Flickr
Reagan's campaign Could not have found a more dedicated volunteer. El-Abd raised money, made phone calls, and stuffed envelopes. I did everything I Could to get the community out by the Reagan revolution. Decades later, El-Abd remains a loyal Republican; I was named by the governor of New Jersey Chris Christie to be the superintendent of elections in Passaic County.
The Reagan era led to generation of activists like El-Abd al GOP fold. George Salem worked at a law firm in a labor lawyer in 1984 When I was Recruited to run the division "ethnic voters" campaign. Working under the famous campaign manager Lee Atwater, managed more than 100,000 volunteers in 36 states Salem, Including the first Arab-American committee in the presidential campaign in history.
Pres. Ronald Reagan (left) and George Salem (right), circa 1984 George Salem
"Before the 1984 campaign, occasionally you would see a Lebanese committee in a presidential campaign. Occasionally you would Syrian. But I Never Had Arab-Americans, and Certainly not HAD anything like Palestinian-American or Egyptian-Americans," says Salem, WHO is Palestinian-American. "But we got Arab-Americans, and covering everyone. That way It's been more or less ever since."
After the election, Salem Became the Department of Labor chief lawyer and the first Palestinian-American never confirmed by the Senate. ,,,,, Although I have never worked full time again in a presidential campaign, I have continued to volunteer your services for the party for the presidency of the Committees of Arab-Americans for the two presidential Efforts of George HW Bush, Bush on visits Accompanying to Meetings with mosques and prominent members of the community around the country.
During the campaign of George W. Bush in 2000, the scope of GOP turning a corner. Bush, Karl Rove, strategist at Muslims Efforts Aimed Specifically, the first time the scope is based on religion and not just ethnicity.
Both Salem El-Abd and Were active in the Bush campaign 2000. The former Often ACTED as a substitute for campaign events in New Jersey, and the Latter Informed the then governor of Texas-long campaign. "[Bush] respects the religious dimension of the community," says Salem. "He respects our values, Which are very consistent With the values of the Republic of hard work, economic opportunity, religious freedom, and so it is on Their Own without much government interference."
Bush May Have won the election only by the width of the robes of a judge of the Supreme Court, but I Took the Muslim vote by a landslide. However, after eight years of Bush in office, I HAD lost the community as a whole, DESPITE making a personal request not to confuse all Americans with terrorism, speechsix Especially in a few days after 9/11 attacks at the Islamic Center of Washington, DC
"If Trump Becomes the candidate, we All have to think twice. Will we still be Republicans?" In 2008, only 2.2 percent of Muslims voted for Republican His successor, Senator John McCain of Arizona, and only 4.4 percent pulled the lever for the former governor of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney, four years later.
After 9/11, the Bush administration issued a series of controversial programs-such as NSEERS, a program Largely forgotten forcing immigrants from Muslim Predominantly country clubs to register with the government and Provide Regular updates on Their sites-and Have invaded Iraq to Eliminate nonexistent weapons of mass destruction. As the party Gathered around Bush, initially for electoral success, Muslims fled big tent of Republicans in crowds.
'Fear sells'
David Ramadan first fell in love with American democracy as a teenager reading of the Constitution in Beirut in the midst of the destruction Caused by the Lebanese civil war. Two weeks after moving to the Unites States in 1989, she was a volunteer in the Bush-Quayle campaign. Over the years, participation progressed: licking envelopes, answering phones, making $ 25 donations and Gradually adding zeros to That Number. Decades later, Ramadan was personally advises Republican candidates in His ADOPTED home of Virginia.
In 2012, Ramadan ran for the House of Delegates of Virginia as a Republican. DESPITE His more than two Decades of activism in the game, the Opponent of Ramadan made His ethnicity is a problem. Anti-Islam activist Frank Gaffney, WHO is advising the campaign of triumph in foreign policy, came to His district to protest a Muslim personally running as a Republican.
"Because of my name, I was Accused of being a terrorist and That was kind Sharia Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas and Hezbollah," Said Ramadan. "Anyone With the same understanding happens in the Middle East no one knows That Could Be in all three of These groups at the same time."
With the support of prominent Republicans as former Reagan administration Attorney General Edwin Meese and Eric Cantor Such, then a leader of the Virginia to to to to House majority, won Ramadan to Become the only Arab-American first generation to be Elected to the body.
Ramadan has a parallel Trump's rhetoric acerca Between Muslims and attacks I saw as the first candidate for the office: preying fears based on ignorance of people for short-term political or financial benefits. "Fear sells. Rational things do not," I says. "Campaigns today want to win at any price. They are not Concerned about the long-term effects. That's what we see When We Have people like Trump, who, in my mind, are not really Republicans."
"Because of my name, I was Accused of being a terrorist and That was kind Sharia Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas and Hezbollah. " There has Also Been a major shift in the focus of the GOP. In 2012, after Mitt Romney lost the presidential race, the GOP published an autopsy report details That what the party must do to win the next election cycle. "You look at that report, and the need to Refers to reach Asians, Latinos and African Americans," Said Robert McCaw, WHO heads government affairs at the nonprofit Council on American-Islamic Relations. "Nowhere in the report does not mention the Arab Communities, Communities of South Asia, or the Muslim Communities. We are not even part of Its new strategy."
McCaw esta attitude contrasts to That of Democratic Party leaders, many of Whom Have made outreach to Muslims a priority. "We Have made gestures as a community for the Republican Party to address Islamophobia. We Have made the same Efforts With the Democratic Party. As a community, letters to [the chairman of the Republican Reince National Committee] Priebus and [Chairman of the National Committee sent democrat] Debbie Wasserman Schultz, "Said McCaw. "Just Schultz Said. There is a provision in the Democratic Party to Participate Muslims."
Whos Islamophobic tone of the 2016 presidential election Republican Began With former neurosurgeon Ben Carson candidate. Shortly after first Trump was negative in Muslim Carson He Said in an Interview with NBC News That being Muslim shoulddisqualify someone to serve as president. Carson's statement Seemed to help His poll numbers, and a few weeks later, Trump upped the front with a proposal to block all Muslims entering the country.
Some of the Opponents of Trump for the nomination of the GOP-particularly Those, like notes Salem, With executive experience, former Florida Gov. Governor Jeb Bush and John Kasich Including treats of Ohio-have, to some extent, pushed back the Islamophobic rhetoric Against. Trump however, has pushed the boundaries of what is acceptable political discourse.
"If you go back to the elections of 2008 or 2012, Trump has made any statements about prep Muslims That, or Ben Carson has done, would disqualify a candidate running," Said McCaw. "When we look at the negative comments made by Newt Gingrich, Michelle Banach, or Herman Cain acerca Muslims, I put them in hot water. They Were Dragged through the mud, and it was a message to other candidates."
It is a cycle That feeds on itself, becoming more extreme and seeps into the overall public. McCaw esta Argues That kind of political language is responsible for aspike in Hate Crimes Against Muslims after the deadly terrorist attacks in Paris last year andSan Bernardino, California. "I do not like this drawing in parallel, but after the bombing of Boston, Which was a tragic and horrible event, saw the unity and solidarity Among Muslims and Their fellow American Citizens," Said McCaw. "We Have not seen esta kind of post-Paris, after San Bernardino counterattacks saw in 2015. What is the Difference between the bombing in 2013 and the attacks of 2015? That's the choice. It candidates taking advantage of marginal views and make them mainstream . "
A party divided
Trump views About Resonate With many Republicans Muslims. Exit polls in five Super Tuesday states Showed more than 60 percent of Republican voters agree With His proposal to ban Muslim. But the presence of Trump at the top of the ticket Could be an electoral disaster. When appointed, not only political analyst Larry Sabato Predicts the veteran Trump losing in a landslide election you vote 179, Trump would, by a wide margin, the candidate for the unpopular General elections by a major party in generations, Especially With groups like -whites not, college graduates, and independent.
"If you go back to the elections of 2008 or 2012, Trump has made any statements About That would disqualify a candidate to run Muslims." "[Trump] actions and words are quite dangerous for the United States," says Ramadan. "They're going to ruin the whole work participation and inclusion in the party over the years we conservatives Have made. It's not something That is ruining During an election period. It is ruining in the coming decades."
For Nearly Three Decades, Ramadan you Fought From Within the GOP for greater inclusion of minorities. With the rise of Trump, Ramadan is beginning to doubt himself. Perhaps the strategy is conservative as I was away from the GOP and insist on the party to come to them if They Want Their votes. "If Trump Becomes the candidate, we All have to think twice. Will we still be Republicans?" I ASKs, rhetorically. "And again, [we] fight for another 10 years to change the party leadership, or will be away from the conservatives Who are under a different umbrella?"
Others see the success of Trump hate selling a fearful public as nothing more than a phase . Salem likens it to a pendulum. In 1984, a Democratic candidate was returning donations from Arab-American groups; in 2016, a Republican candidate was Advocating not let the Muslims in the country. "The goal is That, at some point, the pendulum will stop swinging Greatly in one way or another enormously. It is just being in the middle," says Salem. "Then we can be like the Italian American and Greek-Americans and all other political ethics Recognized and respected groups and be respected for who we are."

Trump even a victory in an Explicitly Islamophobic platform, as unpleasant as it is, would not be enough to drive to El-Abd outside the GOP more than the brutality of ISIS Could do not want to be a Muslim. "What is happening now With some people I never away from the Republican platform call Themselves Republicans," she says. "I will Decided to hang in there, good and strong, so That the party back to where it Should be."
Ahmed, meanwhile, Trump really see much to admire. She likes His economic policy and appreciates His business background. "At the same time, it is sad to see His rhetoric Against Muslims," I says with a sigh. "Every week we Have the opportunity to hear something new That comes up, and I feel like that really Helps His candidacy.'ve Moved up to 11 points When He made the remark Muslim ban. It is sad to see That the climate in America Such reward behavior ".
The aim of the Republican Muslim Coalition is to help Republican presidential candidates Understand Islam. To this end, she met With all the major candidates in the race, except for Trump. After months of trying, Ahmed finally got on the phone with former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski Trump. She used the conversation to invite Trump to visit a mosque and meet With some American Muslims in person.
As founder of the Republican Muslim Coalition, Ahmed is the aim of liaising Between the Philippine government and Muslim Americans. In November, she was reserved onFox News, as He Had Been Several times in the past, to discuss the election of 2016, just after Donald Trump Said He Had shutter American mosques if I Became president.

In 2014, younger Jordan confessed his diet was taking control of his life. The blogger and vegetarian guru diagnosed herself with orthorexia nervosa, a new type of eating disorder where the obsession with healthy eating intensifies cutting whole food groups and work days around meals. Those suffering from the condition can refuse food that is not prepared, even if it is prepared for their loved ones. Some extreme cases crescendo to malnutrition.

The media coverage test younger confessional might suggest orthorexia is a well-established disease. It is not. While orthorexia nervosa captivates public awareness is only just permeating scientific consciousness and is not officially recognized by the medical community. Research is disjointed, and scientists do not agree on a definition or criteria for diagnosing it. Specialists recognize eating disorders, and the National Association of Eating Disorders has a website on the subject, but at this point no one can be officially diagnosed with orthorexia. Instead, people can diagnose themselves after referred by a doctor, or just learn about it through cultural osmosis.

For much of the medical community, orthorexia is a mere whim of alternative medicine flavored anorexia, bulimia, or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, a small contingent of researchers see orthorexia as an eating disorder in its own right, the need for research and selective treatment, and want to establish a true diagnosis. They see potential ortoréxicos as a neglected group that falls through the cracks in the system of mental health care because they do not fit neatly into a box.
In a slow-motion battle takes through studies, reviews, and letters, they are trying to improve diagnostic criteria and definition of orthorexia. These researchers are concerned that if they do not, or orthorexia become a way of pathologizing healthy eating or simply fade into memory, a disease fashionable fad diets.
Steven Bratman used to believe food was medicine. It is believed that the right diet could cure most ailments, but so hard, scientific research began to refute his theories, he became disillusioned. Eventually, he abandoned his favor ideas supported by the science.
It was a practicing alternative medicine doctor when originally coined the term "orthorexia" in an essay in the Journal nonacademic Yoga published in 1997. It describes patterns of behavior that has been observed over the years, including itself, where healthy food became obsessive behavior and a fixation on the "purity of the extreme diet," or what he calls "spirituality kitchen," begins "to cancel other sources of meaning." he wrote on the subject for several years, he lectured and conducted interviews with the media, but has never worked as a research topic.
In 2004, a team of Italian researchers found the writings of orthorexia Bratman and began studying the disease in Italy. In one of the trials Bratman, posed 10 questions designed to help the reader to think in eating habits. The Italian group took six of the questions Bratman, added nine of his, and said it is a diagnostic tool. They called the ORTHO-15.
Bratman says the original questionnaire was never designed to be useful in diagnostic or research. The Italian researchers did not respond to the request by the Daily Dot for comment.
"His view was that it was a condition to believe in a non-standard diet" as vegan or gluten-free diets, he said. Although many people follow these diets, they all become orthorexic according to ORTO-15, Bratman said. With this tool, the proportion of people suffering from orthorexia ranges from 7 percent of the general population in Italy to a whopping 86 percent in ashtanga yoga practitioners in Spain.
"The most basic way to conceptualize orthorexia is a hybrid between an eating disorder and OCD." Bratman those high numbers attributed to the ORTO-15 and fixing its derivatives' in eating behaviors, concerns about nutrition, purity and preparation.
The ritual nature of healthy behaviors and improves healing promises of these diets, Bratman said. But while health and extreme claims that some diets make unrealistic, that does not mean that the signing of these disease, Bratman said.
"If a person thinks veganism protect them from heart disease, and you think they're crazy, that's just a disagreement," Bratman said. "You should not pathologizing a disagreement."
Bratman not realized its diagnostic questionnaire had not become the ORTO-15 and "proof of orthorexia Bratman," until 2014, after numerous studies using questionnaires were published.
Most of the research came from small magazines, sometimes not English in Europe, Australia and South America, unnoticed by the American scientific community. According to Bratman, many researchers were in the "conventional side of a culture war," the creation of a disease taking diet theories that are not supported by mainstream science.
"They had no insider knowledge about what it feels like to believe in alternative health," Bratman said. But he did. That was when Bratman started to correct errors he perceived in the investigation.
Around 2012, Thomas Dunn, a researcher of neuropsychology at the University of Northern Colorado, was found in the center of the debate on orthorexia. After stagnating in his research, he turned to the neuropsychological research in hospitals. There, a orthorexic patient who was the subject of one of the few case studies of America in the disorder was found.
The patient initially started your diet to relieve constipation, but over time, their concerns was oriented toward the purity of their food, and he began to restrict his diet until he was hospitalized for malnutrition.
"I was really stunned by it. I felt I knew the people who had the kind of condition. That was causing problems for people clearly, but it seemed that the US was not aware of it," says Dunn.

Dunn says he was initially on the periphery of the box, but when the primary care physician became too busy to address critical issues and study, Dunn took over. He and his colleagues diagnosed the patient with orthorexia despite the absence of the disease from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM), the manual of diseases and disorders of the mind that social workers use to diagnose patients.
Bratman, who was not involved in the case study, said Dunn and his colleagues had a difficult time getting the article through the peer review process. anonymous experts to evaluate the scientific rigor of the article questioned the validity of the diagnosis. Although it was not the first case of orthorexia, which were not yet convinced. Some patients only had anorexia nervosa, obsessive compulsive disorder, or both reviewers suggested.
Both Bratman and Dunn confess that orthorexia has in common with other recognized eating disorders. Because American culture tends to equate health with thinness, orthorexia often mimics anorexia nervosa, while rituals and moralizing preparations for food harkens to the obsessions of OCD: Cutting food a demanding way to optimize their health benefits does not seem very different to wash one's hands and again to avoid contamination. These traits shared leading some experts to believe that orthorexia is not a disorder in its own right.
Tom Corboy, a therapist and executive director of the Center for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Los Angeles, believes that orthorexia is really TOC-with elements of an eating disorder.
"The most basic way to conceptualize orthorexia is a hybrid between an eating disorder and OCD," says Corboy. "It is certainly disordered eating, but on another level, it is important to note that the focus of obsession is not the weight or appearance, but, for lack of a better term, a fear of contamination."
Corboy said that, unlike mental health generalists and specialists in eating disorders, OCD specialists in the US They have been aware of for some time orthorexia. He said eating disorders centers often refer patients to his clinic with orthorexia.
His group uses cognitive behavioral therapy, an approach where patients learn to critically evaluate their obsessive thinking and relearn their relationship with the object of his obsession. For a patient with orthorexia, using this approach to help patients to unlearn their superstitions to food, while also gradually exposing them to food previously off limits. Corboy said this approach could work regardless of orthorexia is classified as an eating disorder or as a branch of OCD.
"Personally, I do not care if it is considered an eating disorder or OCD. Let's do what works when it comes to treatment," he said.
That's assuming, of course, orthorexia gets into the DSM at all.
Dunn and Bratman recently published a document that defines and offering new diagnostic criteria for orthorexia. The article, published in the journal eating behaviors, refers to the difference between a pattern of eating and the way such patterns dominate the life of a true orthorexic.
They believe that current diagnostic tools to orthorexia focus too much on the diet itself, and not enough on stopping the diet can cause in the lives of some people. There are many people who strive to eat healthier, and some even go to extremes to do so, but most can be rolled on and still enjoy things like Thanksgiving dinner with family or a night out with friends. Such activities can cause extreme distress in a person with orthorexia.
"In the DSM-V, 75 percent of those disorders saying that cause a problem with work, school or social functioning, or are so afflicted so raise your hand and say, 'I need help'" Dunn said. "It's crossing the line if you are malnourished, if the job says you can not take a lunch 90 minutes."
But diet is still important, as a risk factor
". An eating disorder can certainly manifest as an unhealthy fixation on eating only" healthy "but that alone does not necessarily constitute a clinical diagnosis" To explain what he meant, Bratman drew a parallel with the genre: Being a woman it is a risk factor for osteoporosis. But being a woman is not a symptom of the disease. Subscribing to a restrictive diet in particular, such as veganism is simply a risk factor. Some vegans develop orthorexia, but the vast majority will not.
Dunn and Bratman expect to refine the diagnostic criteria in future documents. They plan to raise several questions from more than 100 people suspected of having orthorexia but whose official diagnosis, if any, may be something else. Then, they will gradually reduce based on the questionnaire response. For example, if a question seems to resonate with the group and talk about their experience with orthorexia, then it is likely to stay in the final questionnaire. Bratman said this is the most common way to develop diagnostic criteria.
Even if developing a solid questionnaire, Dunn and Bratman have an uphill battle to convince the scientific community that orthorexia should join the 300 diseases currently listed in the DSM-V. The field of psychology is often at odds over whether to keep adding categories and subcategories for diagnostic volume.
Russell Marx, scientific director of the National Eating Disorders Association, sees orthorexia as it deserves its own category.
"The behavior has used the term" orthorexia "to describe are related to the temperament and personality of an individual. Many people with eating disorders, especially anorexia nervosa, tend to exhibit traits such as perfectionism, avoidance of damage , negative emotionality and rigidity, "Marx said by email.
"These personality traits often persist even in recovery. Therefore undoubtedly an eating disorder can manifest as an unhealthy attachment to eat only food" healthy "
but that alone does not necessarily constitute a clinical diagnosis. "
Corboy see otherwise.
"I'd say five years ago, people who eat in treatment of disorders were literally disappeared [orthorexia] completely," Corboy said. "They just prefer to conceptualize such as anorexia."
People with orthorexia are different because of their fixation is in the purity of food and health, not body image or thinness. It may seem like splitting hairs, but the recognition of these subtle distinctions in some official way through the DSM is important for care.
"From a clinical perspective, the presence of a diagnosis in the DSM is primarily beneficial because it gives legitimacy to something that we see on a regular basis," Corboy said.
He added that the official recognition of the disease increases the likelihood insurance companies to reimburse patients for treatment. It also makes it easier research; funding agencies are keener research into a disease that the medical community agrees that actually exists.
These are the factors fueling and Dunn Bratman search to define and get orthorexia in the DSM. Opponents can not see the point of definition of a disease that is, in their eyes, not significantly different from one of hundreds of people currently listed in DSM-V. However, the definition of orthorexia decisions in real time, which could shed light on the unhealthy behavior disguised as healthy.
