Recently there has been an increase in the number of reports of anorexia nervosa in non-Caucasian subjects. This paper describes three patients of Afro-Caribbean extraction with anorexia nervosa and/or bulimia nervosa seen at a specialist eating disorders clinic at the Maudsley Hospital between 1981 and 1983. No cases had been seen prior to this. The key clinical features were found to be, in the main, typical.
