id encourage them to get professional help tbh.

Idk man, tell them that you’re worried about them, you’ve noticed they’re not eating, would they be open to talking about it, if they say no just keep creating healthy environments around eating. Make more meals that they enjoy, dont keep bringing it up but mention things about ED, how worried you are? Idk I don’t think there’s a right way to go about it but there are certainly wrong ways

it heavily depends on the reason they’re not eating. if it’s about self image, it needs to be handled delicately. you’re not going to help their self image by telling them they have a bad one. they already know that. instead you should take an approach that centers around nutritional value or your love and support for them if it’s because of food insecurity or because they don’t prioritize their needs, you could invite them to eat with you/cook for them, send reminder texts (with consent), etc.
