Anorexia Nervosa is an eating disorder defined as severe, self- inflicted starvation leading to body weight at least 15% below that expected for the individual's sex and height and age. Normally, medical treatment cannot be administered without the consent of the patient. However, mentally ill patients may not have the mental capacity to make a choice.
