✦ Synopsis

Body composition was measured by electrical conductivity in 7 anorexic, 10 bulimic, and 14 control subjects. Potassium 40 measurement was used as a reference method. Percent fat calculated from both measurements correlated highly frs = f0.89, p<.061). The precision of the electrical conductivity method was studied and shown to be satisfactory in three anorexic patients and two controls.

## Abstract Feeding is subjected to circadian regulation; therefore, changes in the components of the endogenous oscillator regulating circadian rhythms may be involved in disordered rhythmicity of eating behavior as it occurs in anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN). We investigated wheth
