Food Junkies: The Truth About Food Addiction

Food Junkies: The Truth About Food Addiction

A fact-filled guide to coping with compulsive overeating problems by an experienced addictions doctor who draws on many patientsâ€™ stories of recovery.

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 â€œcomfort foodâ€ and engaging in substance abuse? For people struggling with food addictions, recognizing their condition â€• to say nothing of gaining support and advice â€• remains a frustrating battle.

Built around the experiences of people suffering and recovering from food addictions, Food Junkies offers practical information grounded in medical science, while putting a face to the problems of food addiction. It is meant to be a knowledgeable and friendly guide on the road to food serenity.
