Although a form of eating disorders had been described by Kampo (Chinese traditional medicine) physicians during the last quarter of the 18th century, the modern study on eating disorders in Japan dates from the end of the 1950s. With the rapid increase in the number of cases, research activities have become very active recently. Both the past and present status of eating disorders and of research activities relating to them in Japan are not well known in other countries. This study concentrates on a review of the literature, with a focus on prevalence, etiology, and symptoms.
尽管在18世纪最后25年里汉方（中医）医生就已描述过一种饮食失调症，但日本对饮食失调症的现代研究始于20世纪50年代末。随着病例数量的迅速增加，相关研究活动近来变得十分活跃。日本饮食失调症的过去和现状以及与之相关的研究活动在其他国家并不广为人知。本研究着重于文献综述，重点关注患病率、病因和症状。
