National Eating Disorders Awareness

Research shows that more than 90 percent of those who have eating disorders are women between the ages of 12 and 25.  You might be surprised to know that hundreds of thousands of boys as well as increasing numbers of older women and men also have these disorders.

The earlier eating disorders are diagnosed and treated, the better the chances are for full recovery.  Learn how to recognize the signs and what you can do to help someone you know.
