Eating disorder not otherwise specified is the category for disorders of eating that do not meet the criteria for other specific eating disorders.Although people with anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa may perform binge eating activities, these are generally associated with purging after the food is swallowed.A person with binge eating disorder will have recurrent episodes of binge eating but will not follow them with some inappropriate compensatory behavior.
