disordered eating (DE) and disorders (ED) can negatively impact athletes' health, wellbeing, athletic performance. this cross-sectional study aims to assess DE risk, body composition, nutrition knowledge among elite Hungarian athletes. risk was assessed using DESA-6H EAT-26 scales, through the Abridged Nutrition for Sport Knowledge Questionnaire (A-NSKQ), composition with OMRON BF511 device. The data were analyzed Kendall's tau correlations, Mann-Whitney U tests, ROC analysis. a total of 71 athletes participated (39.4% males, mean age = 24.8 years, SD 4.8 years 60.6% females, 24.3 4.3 years). At-risk scores on scale recorded nine (12.7%), while 32.4% scored in zone EAT-26, female aesthetic, endurance weight-dependent sports being most affected. Low BF observed four males females.
