True or False: 2.7 million people in Canada are affected by eating disorders?
True, with an estimated 1.4 million being youth.
While Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, and Binge Eating are the most common, there are others to be mindful of, such as Avoidant and Restrictive Food Intake Disorder, or Anorexia Athletica. Each one has a significant impact on the lives of those affected, each with its own warning signs to watch for.
On this Eating Disorders Awareness Week, we urge you to get involved, learn the signs, and lend your support.
