TLDR
In this article, the applicability of the food addiction model to the context of obesity by highlighting findings from the growing body of neuroscience and behavioral research demonstrating that individuals with obesity consume highly palatable foods in ways that resemble substance abuse disorders, and the differences and similarities between obesity and other addictive behaviors by exploring the instances of comorbidity of both conditions and their common risk factors.Abstract:
There is growing consensus that the addictive processes underpinning problematic eating behavior may be a contributor to the rising rates of obesity and to poor long-term weight loss intervention outcomes. In this article, we will critically review the applicability of the food addiction model to the context of obesity by highlighting findings from the growing body of neuroscience and behavioral research demonstrating that individuals with obesity consume highly palatable foods in ways that resemble substance abuse disorders. Furthermore, this article will examine the differences and similarities between obesity and other addictive behaviors by exploring the instances of comorbidity of both conditions and their common risk factors.read more
