As defined by the 	Eating Disorders Awareness and Prevention, Inc., prevention is “is any systematic attempt to change the circumstances that promote, sustain, or intensify problems” (Taylor, 1999).

The prevention that is necessary to curb eating disorders is primary.

According to the February, 1996 article in The Journal of School Health, in the United States eating disorders place third overall in the most common chronic illness in adolescent females.
