How many girls suffer froma an eating disorder?



How many girls suffer froma an eating disorder?

I don't know the exact statistics. You can find information on About.com, or SomethingFishy.com

I can say that the statistics are quite high, and are probably under reported as well.

There are quite a few resources out there for those who are suffering. Most major cities have a facility that will specialize in the treatment of eating disorders. If you would like more information than the above 2 links can supply, try looking through your telephone book and see if you have a local helpline in your area. Good luck!
i would say that of 50% of us do in some way
5 million americans (18%) have an eating disorder.
in the year 2000, 77 billion people were on a diet.
Dr. Greene, my Abnormal Psychology professor
someone told me 1/4 of high school girls have an eating disorder

so like 25%

i think its a little less though
