Social media depicts complex and unattainable beauty ideals that lead people to obsess about their weight and develop Eating Disorders " 

Cases of Eating Disorders have increased spectacularly in recent years. It is estimated that, per 100,000 inhabitants, 30 to 40 women between 15 and 25 years of age will typically suffer from an eating disorder. There really is a growing cultural shift in the concern with food and being thin. Studies carried out in the USA showed that 45% of housewives went on a diet every year; that 56% of women between 25-54 years of age went on a diet; that 76% of women who went on a diet did so more for aesthetic reasons than for health reasons.

Up until 1950, about 200 cases of AN had been described in the literature. Now there are hundreds of thousands of cases. Social phenomena may explain the possible risk of the incidence of AN.

The increasing liberation of women has sometimes paradoxically led some of them to reject feminism and becoming adults, longing to be children in the face of the difficult struggle of AN against the needs of dependency.

In the USA, billions of dollars are spent annually on dieting and 1 in 10 girls suffers from an eating disorder. One in every 250 teenage girls has AN and at least 3.5 million people, predominantly women, are suffering from bulimia.
