[Alimentary and nutritional education in eating disorders].

Eating disorders (ED) are a complex pathology in which numerous etiopathogenic factors intervene, and their approach requires an interdisciplinary approach, which is why nutritional education (NE) should be part of both prevention and treatment programs, since NE aims to modify eating behavior to achieve healthier patterns and, for this, the development of nutritional teaching programs is required, directed to the patients and their environment, focusing on the different factors that condition food choices and attitudes towards feeding. NE in these patients is a fundamental therapeutic tool to achieve normalization of eating behavior, since it will allow to contribute knowledge that facilitates the adoption of healthy behaviors, abandon erroneous ideas, and reduce the irrational fear of certain foods, as well as minimize nutritional risk and normalize eating behavior. The prevalence of eating disorders has been increasing over the years and the concern is such that the different autonomous communities, hospitals, and government entities have developed guidelines and protocols that include NE for the prevention and management of the disease.

Se sugiere poner en práctica un enfoque participativo, multimodal e interactivo, basando los programas en la terapia motivacional y la disonancia cognitiva, tratando de que estos sean sostenibles e intentando contar con el apoyo de líderes comunitarios.
