It doesn’t get discussed much, but food addiction is very real – and it affects millions of people every day.
In recent years, modern medicine has started to accept food addiction as a legitimate disorder – like drug or alcohol addiction.
When you suffer from food addiction, the chemicals in your brain operate in such a way that they need food all of the time.
How do you know if you suffer from food addiction?
- Do you eat all the time, regardless of whether or not you’re hungry?
- Do you get food cravings that are so strong that they overpower everything else in your life?
- Do you find yourself binging and eating to a point of being physically sick?
- Do you suffer emotional problems because of your eating – like guilt or shame?
- Do you know that your eating is bad for you, but you can’t stop it?
To treat food addiction, you have to do 3 things:
- Admit that you have a problem
- Identify your triggers – or, the situations that lead to your binging
- Work with professionals to take control and establish healthy eating habits
