Did you know that you are more likely to meet somebody with an eating disorder than you are to meet somebody with green eyes?
“The death rate associated with eating disorders kills more than 12 times as many girls ages 12-24 than any other cause of death. This includes unintentional accidents (motor vehicle crashes, fire) and any other heath diseases (cancer, etc.).” – ANAD.org
National Eating Disorder Awareness (NEDA) Week is February 21-27th. NEDAwareness week is an annual campaign to bring public attention to the critical needs of people with eating disorders and their families.
