Millions of Americans struggle with eating disorders, but very few receive the professional help they need to overcome these debilitating and potentially fatal disorders.
Did you know?
More than nine percent of Americans struggle with an eating disorder.
Anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa affect .9 and 1.5% of women, respectively.
Binge eating disorder affects nearly three percent of all adults in the US.
Eating disorders are more fatal than any other psychiatric illness. Without treatment, as many as one in five individuals with an eating disorder will die.
Only one in 10 people with an eating disorder receive treatment.
