Orthorexia test: do I have Orthorexia?

Focusing on healthy eating can feel positive. That is, until it becomes rigid, stressful, or all-consuming. This orthorexia quiz helps you reflect on patterns like strict food rules, anxiety around “unhealthy” foods, or feeling guilt when your diet isn’t perfect. It’s not a diagnosis, but a way to check in with yourself.

If these habits feel familiar, you can learn more about orthorexia, how it relates to other eating disorders, and when it may be time to seek treatment.
