You gonna eat that?
Stone on 10/29/2007 |
Pica, (pie-ka), is a pattern of eating non-food materials. For a specific diagnosis, the pattern has to last longer than a month. Most of us know babies use their mouths to explore, but, if the abnormal eating occurs after the age of two, it's usually pica. Have you ever heard of pregnant women craving laundry starch--and eating it? This is called amylophagia-starch eating! I'm going to give you the clues and you decide what specific medical term describes what's being eaten. For purposes of this quiz,-phagy and -phagia are interchangeable. All answers will end in -phagia. Some easy, some hard. This is my first quiz. Hope you enjoy; please remember to rate! Sources: MedLinePlus Encyclopedia, eMedicine, Wikipedia.
