They both cause a human being to eat and repeatedly eat strange things? But what is the diffrence between the two?


Answers:    agree beside the above answer but do want to add that folks with PWS can munch through any item. This means they can devour non food items. As well the can put away inappropriate food items such as frozen organic meat, coffee grains or even as horrific as it sounds dive into dumpsters looking for food people disgard.

Its genetic and messy. The hypothalmus is damamged and saiety is a function the hypomthalmus controls. In addition the emotion, temperature regulation and cramp.
Pica is an eating disorder manifest by a craving to ingest any material not customarily considered as food. Prader-Willi Syndrome is a rare congenital condition speckled by genetic obesity,mental retardation,short stature, sexual infantilism, and hypotonia (which method lack of rigidity in muscles). The wreak is an abnormal chromosome 15 of protective origin. Hope this help.
