An eating disorder is to eat, or avoid eating which negatively affects both one's physical and mental health. Anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa are the most common eating disorders. Another type of eating disorder is Binge Eating disorder. Over eating can lead to serious health problems like morbid obesity, diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease.You can create awareness among your friends and family by distributing Eating disorder wristbands. Pink wristbands are available for this disorder. Certain message like "eat less" can be printed on the wristband. Whenever you start eating, this message will help you to eat less.

Hmmm, I don't think a wristband that says "Eat Less" will help you do that. It's a mental illness, not just a physical inability to eat or control yourself. Also, the ED awareness ribbon colour is periwinkle (light purple/blue-ish). That being said, this might be a good idea as an alternative to a medic alert bracelet...

I think its nice way in which people can remember to eat less and pink color also very good for "Eating Disorder". Any message we can be easily publish by wristband....

I've been struggling with ED's for about two years now, and this bracelet infuriates me. Why would you want someone with an eating disorder to be encouraged to keep in his or her destructive ways? Please, do a little research before you go making an awareness bracelet.
