The Eating Disorder Network (EDN) is a collaborative group of health professionals from across the University of Iowa campus that have come together to offer services for the treatment and prevention of eating disorders.  This multi-disciplinary team was formed in response to the growing number of UI students who were struggling with eating disorder concerns.

Are You Concerned with Your Eating?

It is important to realize that you are not alone in your struggle. Studies have shown that as many as 10 million females and 1 million males are struggling with serious eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia. Another 25 million suffer from binge eating disorder. 

As you begin to address your eating concerns, keep in mind that you are a special and unique individual! Regardless of the numbers on the scale, the size, the shape, and the curve of your body, you have qualities about you that nobody else has. With assistance you can stop being consumed with thoughts of food and weight.  There are people who care and can help you overcome your eating concerns.
