Binge Eating Help
Receive support, strategies and nutritional interventions from dietitians and nutritionists for binge eating disorder, helping you on the way to recovery.
What is binge eating disorder?
According to National Eating Disorder Information Centre,
“Binge-eating disorder is characterized by recurring episodes of binge eating. It is important to note that overeating and binge-eating are not the same.
Overeating can be described as consuming more food than your body needs at a given time. Most people overeat on occasion. Binge-eating is less common and is marked by psychological distress.”
