Get ready to scare the Binge Eating Disorder away.
Binge eating disorders
The disorder affects about 2 percent of the general population and 8 percent of people who are obese.Because binge-eating disorder involves both weight and eating-disorder concerns, researchers in both the obesity and eating-disorders fields perceive treatment goals through the lens of their own training. On one side of the debate, eating-disorders experts believe binge-eating is best treated by traditional eating-disorder approaches, such as helping patients reduce or eliminate binging, improving their self-esteem and body acceptance, and treating underlying psychological problems such as depression and anxiety."Public health experts who deal with obesity would say, 'If you're not treating the weight, it's like helping someone get rid of a hangnail and leaving the cancer,'" says Kelly Brownell, PhD, a psychologist who heads the Yale Center for Eating and Weight Disorders and treats people with binge-eating disorder and obesity. "Binge-eating itself is not of public health significance--eliminating it does not address all of the potential long-term sequel of obesity such as hypertension, stroke and heart attack."
