Most women incessantly stress over weight issues. They're well acquainted with all kinds of diets and can casually switch over when the need arises. But when the same pattern starts to repeat itself in young girls, it's a reason for worry.
The team monitored their dieting habits for the next 10 years and examined the impact on their health. The younger a woman, the more likely she was to develop extreme weight control behaviours like self-induced vomiting, binge drinking, and become overweight or obese when she reached her 30's.The researchers said that while the exact cause of these outcomes has not been determined in this research, discouraging weight loss diets in young girls is said to help and reduce the risk of developing eating disorders and weight-related problems in the future.Researchers also encouraged the need for public health initiatives that will work to increase the well being of young girls like increasing the amount of physical activity in a day, reducing the time spent watching television and eating more fruits and vegetables.
