Abstract in brief

The study used data from the National Comorbidity Survey Replication (2001-2003) to estimate how common eating disorders like anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating are, finding higher prevalence rates among women than men.
Risk for bulimia and binge eating increases with newer birth cohorts, and these disorders often co-occur with other mental health issues, with specific links between anorexia and low weight and binge eating and severe obesity.
Despite their impact and tendency to be underdiagnosed or untreated, most individuals with eating disorders do not seek treatment, highlighting a public health concern due to their association with other mental health problems and role impairment.]
