We have thus subconsciously been influenced into believing that certain images depicted by the media are ‘true beauty’. The nature between this created image and media has become the foundation of a significant increase in the relationship between media exposure and eating disorders. By establishing unattainable standards of beauty, the media drives individuals to dissatisfaction with themselves. This dissatisfaction resorts to drastic measures as these individuals try to achieve unreachable goals. It is discouraging to see how television, movies, and magazines which were initially produced for entertainment can revolutionize the way we think and feel about ourselves. Health education programs could prevent disordered eating by placing preventative measures such as a program that not only teaches about how media relates to body dissatisfaction but also having sessions on physical activity and healthy eating, as well as teaching individuals to accept themselves and others for who they are not what they look like.
