Because primary care providers are likely to be the first clinicians who encounter patients with eating disorders, it is important that they are able to effectively and efficiently diagnose these patients and make appropriate referrals. Early diagnosis and treatment are associated with a higher rate of recovery, and prolonged illness is associated with devastating harmful consequences. It is vital that we equip doctors, especially primary care clinicians, with the latest evidence to empower their decision-making and improve care for their patients. This is a literature review study, with a descriptive character. The study identification and selection strategy was by searching the SCIELO, MEDLINE, PUBMED, LILACS and American Psychiatric Society databases.
