TLDR
In this paper, a prospective cohort study, Project EAT (Eating and Activity in Teens and Young Adults), was used to examine prospective associations between self-reported past-year diet pill and laxative use for weight control and selfreported receipt of an ED diagnosis.Abstract:
Objective To replicate findings from a prior study which identified prospective associations between use of products for weight control and subsequent receipt of a first-time eating disorder (ED) diagnosis among female adolescents and young adults. Method Data from a prospective cohort study, Project EAT (Eating and Activity in Teens and Young Adults), were used to examine prospective associations between self-reported past-year diet pill and laxative use for weight control and self-reported receipt of an ED diagnosis among females without prior receipt of an ED diagnosis (N = 1,015). Participants were followed from early/middle adolescence (EAT-I; Mage = 14.9 years) into late adolescence/emerging adulthood (EAT-II; Mage = 19.5 years) and young adulthood (EAT-III; Mage = 24.8 years). Results First-time receipt of an ED diagnosis was reported by 2.4% of participants at EAT-II and 4.0% at EAT-III. After adjusting for demographics and weight status, participants using diet pills (risk ratio [RR] = 3.58, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.96-6.54) and laxatives (RR = 2.77, 95% CI: 1.01-7.64) had greater risk of receiving a first-time ED diagnosis within 5 years than those not using these products. Discussion The present study replicated prior findings, providing further evidence for a prospective link between use of products for weight control and subsequent receipt of an ED diagnosis.read more

Prevention of eating disorders: 2021 in review
TL;DR: A review of 19 prevention-related publications in Eating Disorders during 2021 is framed by four models: (1) Mental Health Intervention Spectrum: health promotion → types of prevention → case identification/referral → treatment; (2) the prevention cycle: rationale and theory, shaped by critical reviews → clarifying risk and protective factors → program innovation and feasibility studies → efficacy and effectiveness research → program dissemination; (3) links between disordered eating (DE) and eating disorders (EDs); and (4) Kraemer and Jacobi's criteria for variable, causal risk factors (RFs) as mentioned in this paper .

TL;DR: The most popular weight loss strategies were dieting and fasting, while exercise and weight loss medicines showed low relative search volumes (VRBs) as mentioned in this paper, indicating that the search for weight loss topics was expressive during the 17 months surveyed, almost nationwide.
