Palumboism is an eating disorder characterized by the consumption of a lot of food.
Palumboism is a form of anorexia nervosa, also known as severe or purging type anorexia, that usually occurs in males who binge on food for brief periods before subsequently throwing it up to avoid weight gain. Often the individual may be using some other form of purging to offset their binging behaviour or they may use excessive exercise during this period of binging.
