What is ARFID? | Monte Nido

Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID)

What is Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID)?

ARFID involves restrictive eating behaviors that severely limit calorie intake, which results in growth delays, weight loss, and health implications of malnutrition across all ages. It differs from other eating disorders as there are usually no behaviors or thoughts that indicate a fear of weight gain or desire to be thin.

What are the symptoms and health impact of ARFID?

People with ARFID often have significant nutritional deficiencies. They may also experience weight loss or stunted growth.

What does ARFID treatment look like?

‍Treatment for ARFID includes nutritional counseling, therapy to address the root psychological issues, and sometimes medical intervention to manage acute health risks.
