What percentage of Canadian teenage girls and boys suffer from eating disorders?

The statistics are all over the place. A lot depends on how you define an eating disorder. Some people would say that anyone who feels overweight and wants to lose weight has a body image problem and therefore and eating disorder. That's the only way that the numbers could be as high as the previous answer suggests (75 percent).





You can get a variety of statistics on eating disorders among Canadians at the Web page below. Since this is from the Canadian National Eating Disorder Information Centre, their statistics are a lot more reliable than a high school paper.
