You may say there is no 'prevention' but there are things that can be done to make people more aware and that you can do to stop an eating disorder at it's very roots to stop it developing into more dangerous territory!

Within the family home (if you are a parent/carer e.t.c.) mealtimes can be a very important factor. 1.It gives children positive eating habits and 2. doesn't give them much chance to skip meals! Also, The media is a big influence but obviously people cannot stop it from being spread! But you can teach people that images in the magazines, on the TV are not always healthy ones.

If you suspect an eating disorder it is important that you speak to the person about it!! :) If you think you may have an eating disorder go out and speak to someone else about it. You can talk to a teacher at school, your GP, family , friends... no one will judge! They will be so glad to help :)

Hope this helps you?
