Few policies support the prevention of eating disorders. In this post, I rely on scientific research to support my argument that eating disorder prevention in childhood is vital for future health.
Key Points:
The foundations for eating disorder development begin before adolescence.
Childhood obesity prevention gets more funding than eating disorder prevention.
If implemented, the Eating Disorders Prevention Act would educate children about eating disorders and offer screeners.
