Help People Heal Their Relationship with Food
Imagine a world where everyone has a healthy relationship with food. They are able to eat without guilt, shame, or fear. They are able to listen to their bodies and nourish themselves with the foods that make them feel good. This is the world that food addiction professionals are working to create.
The Problem
Food addiction is a real and growing problem. It is estimated that one in five women and one in ten men in the United States suffers from an eating disorder. Eating disorders are the deadliest mental illness, with a mortality rate that is 12 times higher than the general population.
Obesity is another serious problem that is often linked to food addiction. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than two-thirds of adults in the United States are overweight or what they consider obese, and this is not so different in other parts of the world, as more than 1.9 billion adults worldwide are overweight or obese, according to the World Health Organization. Obesity is not only about weight and looks, it increases the risk of developing a number of chronic diseases, including heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and some types of cancer.
