日本进食障碍患者令人担忧
日本进食障碍患者令人担忧



A group in Japan is worried about people with eating disorders. The Japan Society for Eating Disorders (JSED日本进食障碍协会) said people who eat too much or too little don’t get right help. The JSED said many people are ill because of being overweight or underweight. It said few of these people get medical help. The president of JSED said, “Hundreds of thousands of people are suffering in silence. There are very few services to help people.” He added, “It’s often too late by the time the patient is seen in a hospital. Their condition is very bad. Sometimes they are even close to death.” 
Japan’s Ministry of Health(卫生部) said it was difficult to find out how many people suffer from eating disorders. It said many women were too shy to see a doctor and did not want to admit they had a problem. A spokesman said the government was trying to publish more information about eating disorders. He said, “We want to set up local systems of support where their illness can be picked up early, so people can be helped sooner.” It shows that in 2014, only 10,000 people in Japan went to doctors for eating disorders, while 725,000 people went to doctors in the UK.
