Summary
"Overeating, binge eating, obesity, anorexia, and bulimia: Food Junkies tackles the complex, poorly understood issue of food addiction from the perspectives of a medical researcher and dozens of survivors. What exactly is food addiction? Is it possible to draw a hard line between indulging cravings for "comfort food" and engaging in substance abuse? For people struggling with food addictions, recognizing their condition remains a frustrating battle. Food Junkies offers practical information grounded in medical science while putting a face to the problems of food addiction, serving as a knowledgeable and friendly guide on the road to food serenity. This newly revised and expanded second edition brings the latest research and practical strategies for people facing the complicated challenges of eating disorders and addictions, offering an affirming and manageable path to healthy and sustainable habits."--
