Unlike anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa, ARFID is not characterized by a preoccupation with body shape and weight or by intentional weight loss behaviors. Instead, patients suffering from ARFID may be disinterested in food and eating, or may avoid foods because of a negative response to their color, texture, smell, taste or temperature. Individuals may also excessively fear unpleasant consequences of eating such as choking, gagging or vomiting(functional dysphagia) or exacerbated gastroesophageal reflux symptoms. 3, record 3, English, - avoidant%2Frestrictive%20food%20intake%20disorder
