    Excessive exercise fostered an obsession with weight and appearance, potentially leading to unhealthy eating patterns. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that individuals who exercised compulsively or participated in high-performance sports experienced significant pressure to meet certain physical standards and followed extreme diets, which contributed to the development of eating disorders. A bibliographic review was conducted using the Prisma method, selecting 23 out of 225 relevant studies from databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, ProQuest, Mendeley, Medline, Web of Science, Scopus, and Zotero. The findings affirmed that physical hyperactivity constituted a high-risk factor for the development of eating disorders, and strict dietary regimens compromised the nutrition of young athletes. A key element in their recovery was the nutritional approach of gradual food reintroduction in small quantities until patients achieved full recovery. The study concluded by noting that a balanced relationship between nutrition and physical activity, coupled with the healthcare team's commitment to patients, would prevent the increase of such cases.
