Body Image and Health Inc. is a not-for-profit, health promotion organisation which works for social change - with the fitness, fashion, media and advertising industries, health and education professionals, government and the research community - so that people of all shapes and sizes can feel good about, and care for their bodies and themselves. In the early 1990’s, a group of health professionals became concerned at the high levels of unhealthy dieting among women, and the pressure on women and girls to conform to a very thin body ideal. They established Body Image and Health Inc and introduced International No Diet Day (May 6) to Australia, to inform Australians about the dangers of dieting and warn against the promotion of unrealistic body ideals.
