these people make me sick

ROFL.

Oh noez guys, I think I'm developing Orthorexia Nervosa, stay away!!

Hmm, about this link, in the article, i think this is pretty...how to put it, pathetic. People are just finding new ways to put people into groups and seperate them. The editor of the article is mistaking a few things, she starts with categorising these people as healthy eating humans, however later mentioning the rules of this "healthy eating" that a lot of essential food types are not touched, thus meaning these people do not eat healthy. Oxymoron much?

Indeed

So junk food ftw?

Being passionate about one's desire to remain healthy is now a disorder.

–noun 1. lack of order or regular arrangement; confusion: Your room is in utter disorder.
2. an irregularity: a disorder in legal proceedings.
3. breach of order; disorderly conduct; public disturbance.
4. a disturbance in physical or mental health or functions; malady or dysfunction: a mild stomach disorder.

Using the second definition, which is more general than the fourth, it follows that so many people have blindly accepted that their food is poisoned by pesticides, herbicides, harsh chemicals and the likes that opposing this will not only socially disable an individual, but it is irregular. It is no longer the norm for an individual to care about their health. If this is the opinion of those in the Medical profession, then I would infer that this implies that they believe themselves to be normal and so do not care about an individual's health. Keep this in mind the next time that you see a doctor.

Furthermore, the fact that those who are concerned with what they put in their bodies are more educated may or may not imply that it is the wish of those in the medical profession that the population be less educated about nutrition, and so fall within the norms, where their eating habits will cause more disease and nutrient deficiencies and give doctors and pharmaceutical companies more lucrative opportunities.

It's cold, but it's logical. The real consequences of this "disorder" is in the pockets of those that benefit from people not being concerned with their health.

At least it doesn't give you cancer like everything else apparently does nowadays.

Whoa, Modack... be careful there. We all know that claiming something doesn't give you cancer, gives you cancer.

Indeed.

lol, you know its not "what" gives you cancer, its more the question of how much of that something that gives you the cancer.

Agapooka there are people who can eat healthy without pesticides, herbicides and chemicals. Eating organic food for example. The article written is more talking about the useful food types that are ignored by extremely picky eaters. Which means they are not eating healthily. You need to be very careful about how you use the word healthy. Being passionate about eating healthy is not a disorder by any means.
And what your saying in the end there is very...,over the top, not everybody in this world's only care is money.

You're right. The people who don't care about power and money usually end up being used and abused by the ones who do.
