Eating disorders are a group of mental health conditions that involve disordered eating habits and an unhealthy preoccupation with food, weight, and body shape. Eating disorders are serious and can have long-lasting physical and psychological effects. They can affect people of all ages, genders, races, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Unfortunately, they are becoming increasingly common in the modern world. It is estimated that as many as 10 million men and 20 million women in the United States suffer from an eating disorder at some point during their lives.
