3 positive outcomes

In my presentation about bulimia the three positive outcomes were:
1) I learned a lot more about bulimia which I didn’t even know existed
2) I had fun with my presentation
3) My presentation held a lot of knowledge and I knew what I was trying to say so it wasn’t hard for me

The digestive system may be broken into two parts: a long, winding, muscular tube accompanied by accessory digestive organs and glands. That open-ended tube, known as the alimentary canal or digestive tract, is composed of various organs. The walls of the alimentary canal from the esophagus through the large intestine are made up of four tissue layers. The innermost layer is the mucosa, coated with mucus. This protects the alimentary canal from chemicals and enzymes that break down food and from germs and parasites that might be in that food. Around the mucosa is the submucosa, which contains blood vessels, nerves, and lymph vessels. Wrapped around the submucosa are two layers of muscles that help move food along the canal. The outermost layer, the serosa, is moist, fibrous tissue that protects the alimentary canal and helps it move against the surrounding organs in the body.

The eating disorder bulimia May.21st

Bulimia is psychological eating disorder characterized by episodes of binge-eating and purging (inappropriate method of weight control).The inappropriate methods are vomiting, enemas, excessive use of laxatives, and compulsive exercising.


Binge-eating is when the consumer of the food eats much larger portions than a regular person. A person with bulimia can eat as much as 20,000 calories in one meal but, then they throw it all up (purging). Sufferers of bulimia don’t eat this much because of intense hunger but of stress, depression, and self esteem issues.


Bulimia was 1st diagnosed as its own eating disorder in the 1980’s. The reason why bulimia was diagnosed this late was because people with bulimia don’t look any different that a regular person unlike its relative disease anorexia where the person is just skin and bone.


When a person has bulimia there are various symptoms that you can see. Here are a few of them
· Strict dieting
· Bloodshot eyes
· Swollen glands in neck
· Vomiting blood
· Fasting




Most people who have bulimia are people that do modeling, dancing, gymnastics, wrestling, and long distance running.



The digestive system is a series of organs joined in a long twisted tube extending from the mouth to the end of the large intestine.

The organs that make up the digestive system are the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, pancreas, and liver.


When you eat food it goes down your throat into your stomach. From there the stomachs acid breaks down the food and sends it to the large and small intestines. Once it has passed through the small intestine it will go through the large one and end its trip out of your body.
