Question

Article on unhealthy eating habits

Answer 1

The prevalence of unhealthy weight control behaviors, such as fasting, eating very little food, using a food substitute (powder or special drink), skipping meals, and smoking more cigarettes, remained consistent among approximately one-third of males from adolescence to adulthood.

Among girls, these unhealthy eating habits increased slightly among the youngest from 48% to 51% as they entered early adulthood and decreased slightly from 61% to 54% among the older group as they approached middle adulthood.
