Have you ever met people with eating disorders (ED)? ED include anorexia, bulimia, psychogenic overeating and vomiting and others.
Unfortunately Russia don't have official statistics about ED, but I have found statistics according to U.S: 30 million people suffer from ED only in USA. Worldwide it could reach 100 million!
Nowadays model thin and numerous diets are driving young people into the framework of 90-60-90, and chronic stress exacerbates the condition - this issue is gaining momentum.
The treatment involves psychiatric consultation, medication and in some cases hospitalization patients in a specialized hospital. But science is rushing forward. To help solve the problems of these patients, French researchers propose using virtual reality: the company C2Care is his invention - С2Nutri that complements the main treatment and assists the rehabilitation process.
С2Nutri is an application that will allow the patient to get rid of eating disorders, given its individual characteristics. I must say that the company is also developing a program for treating phobias and addictions, is used in the rehabilitation of patients with disorders of the vestibular apparatus. Perhaps the only downside to their products is the price: 60 Euro per month.
Change eating habits
App С2Nutri in virtual reality allows patients to choose from more than 80 products: chips, nuts, snacks, burgers, pasta, rice and so on. They can choose the approximate portions of food and to learn useful information about nutritional values.
Side view
Enter your parameters (gender, height, weight), the patient can look at your body, assess yourself to decide how it would look or Vice versa. This type of visualization allows your body to understand that, for example, weight 40 kg, to which very often seek patients with anorexia, not only beautiful, but also painful.
Walking around the supermarket
The process of immersing the patient in a virtual grocery store allows doctors to assess the patient's behavior, see their "impulses" towards particular food. Such trips help the patients to adapt among the huge variety of food, learn to choose healthy foods and to get rid of "bad habits" in the food.
The problem of eating disorders relevant now as ever. Every decade there are new and new ways of solving this problem in the 21st century, the century of technology, the use of virtual reality became a new milestone in medicine.
