    Abstract

    Eating disorders rank among the most debilitating psychiatric disturbances that affect young women. Knowledge has increased in recent years about the two major eating disorders, anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN); however, much remains unknown. This review article will provide an overview of the epidemiology, proposed risk factors and clinical features of AN, and BN, as well as current recommendations for evaluation and treatment of these disorders.
