Orthorexia is a disorder whereby sufferers become obsessed with eating what they consider to be a biologically pure diet. Orthorexia is an emerging area of study, and many questions remain regarding its definition, diagnosis, and potential place in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. This study therefore sought to look at issues surrounding orthorexia, such as body image, anxiety, obsessions, and the overall experience of the disorder. Data was analysed using a descriptive–interpretive method.</p> <p>This data project contains documentation of the interview research and an aggregated table with code and selected interview excerpts. Interviews were conducted via Skype and recorded with Pamela for Skype.</p> Ireland United Kingdom United States Canada South Africa
