Does anyone know of a good website to find updated Statistics on eating disorders in the united states?



I鈥檓 doing a report for school and all the websites I鈥檝e been with either don鈥檛 seem suitable/creditable. The statistics reported are from the nineties I鈥檇 like them for 2005 or 2006. And wikipedia is not a creditable source considering that ppl change change the information anytime they wish and that the sources are often broken links, not that I don鈥檛 appreciate wikipedia in all-purpose they are normally right on, but I can鈥檛 put that stuff in my bibliography.

It has some newer stats though some are from the late, late 90's...Hopefully they help :)
The National Institutes of Healths project called healthy people 2010.
They have the latest data
here is their search page - take a look at the "latest data" link

As far as research goes, if the NIH says its so, its so...they are considered the Gold Standard
12 years of research
