The number of women who actively participate in sports has drastically increased in the last few decades, which is a trend followed by many health benefits and serious harmful health side effects as well. The Female Athlete Triad stands out among these as a condition which includes eating disorders, menstrual disorders and osteoporosis. Eating disorders are the first link to which all other disorders are later attached, while the risk for their development rema ins undetected despite the specificities of certain sports. They often develop out of eating re strictions (diets) or out of an unhealthy eating habit. The aims of this paper were to detect risks for the development of eating disorders by 1) determining body composition parameters and harmful eating habits and 2) identifying risk factors suggested by American Academy of Family Phy sicians. The sample of examinees was comprised of e lite emale athletes (N=111) divided into three groups (sports that use a ball, dance and athletics ), each with different risks for the development of eating disorders. The control group (N=27) consi sted of non-athlete female students. They had their body composition and BMI determined and t hey answered a questionnaire which estimated risks for the development of eating disor ers in primary health care. Based on the answers to screening questions and eat ing habits, the results showed significantly higher risks for the development of eating disorder s in the athletes’ group, compared to the control group. Low BMI of less than 18.5, as a dire ct criterion for energy deficiency, was also more present (p<0,05) in the athletes’ group. Therefore, based on body index values and key scree ning questions, we conclude that active participation in sports carries a higher risk for t he development of eating disorders.
