People with an eating disorder or with any problem with food don't want to admit what they're going through. They deny having food issues and of course they get mad for someone telling them or asking about it. I don't think there is any way that you can really approach her nicely and just ask her about it. I mean, you already tried but try again. Just let her know that you really want to help her out and tell her about all the negatives about having an eating disorder. I also don't think she even stoped purging or not eating right. If she doesn't want you to help her or if she doesn't want to admit anything, you need to tell an adult. Someone that you trust and that might be able to help. If she finds out, she will be mad but later she will realize that it was only for the best and it was to help her. You would be a good friend and it's nice of you to try to help her.
