摘要：

Case reports of anorexia nervosa in subjects of Asian (Indian subcontinental) extraction have been rare. Three Asian adolescents with anorexia nervosa are described, one of whom is male. The impact of the Muslim festival of Ramadan is described in the two Muslim cases. There is a need for better understanding of attitudes towards body shape and food within the subculture.
