Yes, to me is it important positive body image, because for me protected the anorexics and bulimics. The anorexics is afraid of gaining weight, rejected the food and retaliation of persons.The girls and boys are looking for the mirror and see another body. The bulimics is eating too much and chuck out the food in excess. Much teenagers take laxatives or diuretics and refuse the exercise.
The many people have eating disorders because they eating much fast food and they not a regular alimentation and exercise for day.
