The current study examines diet aid use among college women at risk for eating disorders and explores characteristics associated with diet aid use.
Participants were 484 college women<30 years from 6 universities in the San Francisco Bay Area (SF) and San Diego who were at risk for developing eating disorders. A checklist assessed diet pill, fat blocker, diuretic, laxative, and other diet aid use over the past 12 months.
Thirty-two percent of the college women reported using a diet aid. Diet aid use was double the rate in San Diego (44%) compared with SF (22%) (p=.000). Weight and shape concerns were higher among diet aid users than among nonusers across sites.
A significant number of college women at risk for eating disorders are using diet aids. We recommend that clinicians inquire about diet aid use among college-aged patients.
本研究调查有饮食失调风险的大学女生使用减肥辅助品的情况，并探究与使用减肥辅助品相关的特征。
参与者为来自旧金山湾区（SF）和圣地亚哥6所大学的484名30岁以下有饮食失调风险的大学女生。一份清单评估了过去12个月内使用减肥药、脂肪阻滞剂、利尿剂、泻药及其他减肥辅助品的情况。
32%的大学女生报告使用过减肥辅助品。圣地亚哥（44%）使用减肥辅助品的比例是SF（22%）的两倍（p = 0.000）。各地点使用减肥辅助品者对体重和体型的担忧程度高于未使用者。
大量有饮食失调风险的大学女生在使用减肥辅助品。我们建议临床医生询问大学适龄患者使用减肥辅助品的情况。
