An evidence-based approach<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With over 20 years of research supporting it, The Body Project is the most thoroughly evaluated eating disorder prevention intervention to date. It has been delivered in over 136 countries to more than 4.5 million women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With support from five independent laboratories, the most rigorous trial conducted found that the intervention prevented 60% of the cases of eating disorders in comparison with a control group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
