Food Addiction

Food Addiction – A Growing Problem

Here we look at the curious and biologically perverse phenomena, the craving for and the compulsive eating and drinking of foods that cause illness, obesity and obvious suffering. There is confusion about the origin and nature of abnormal eating behaviours. However, most popular psychological ideas are probably wrong since eating is based on old primitive programs in our brain and have little or nothing to do with the modern personality.

If you ask well-motivated people, who would not believe that they had a food addiction problem, to change their diet to regain their health, many will do so and report surprising success. However, a short time after recovery they will report a relapse with loss of control of their food choices and eating behaviour. They will say "I can't believe it - I was doing so well; then I ate some cookies and I couldn't stop - I ate everything in sight and now I am feeling desperately sick!"

If you get to this point, you should first worry about your health and wellness, you may look for health insurance, starting at InsureLane and get free health insurance quotes.

If you ask a bulimic that would not consider herself to be ill about health problems, you will often discover that she has had symptoms of food allergy since infancy - colic, eczema, migraines, bloating, diarrhoea and many other symptoms that came and went for many years. She might tell you that she had cows milk allergy as an infant and still avoids drinking milk, but typically she binges on ice cream and cheese.

There exists a distinct similarity of experiences in different groups of people with problems that look, at first glance, to be un-related. What links these diverse groups is difficulty controlling eating and drinking behaviour with adverse health consequences. We see the entire problem of eating disorders and illness disorders as different aspects of prevalent food problems in our society. Your version of the story will depend on which part of the complex you are most concerned about.

Health problems linked to food-addiction are:

• Obesity
• Alcoholism
• Diabetes (NIDDM)
• Bulimia
• Food Allergy (delayed pattern or type3)

The secrets to solving food-addiction are:

• Identify and avoid trigger foods and drinks
• Increase nutrient density with healthy foods and good nutrient supplements
• Exercise and create a healthier lifestyle
• Personal development and increased self confidence

We think of trigger foods as the "bad guys"; these foods and drinks cause symptoms and at the same time trigger cravings and compulsive eating or drinking. The term "addictive food allergy" was suggested to describe the connection between compulsive eating and illness. You have to stop eating these foods to re-gain control and to recover from the illnesses they cause.
