Sample Book Insights:
#1 Binge eating is when a person eats large amounts of food in a short period of time. It is a major problem for many people, and not just those in the Western world.
#2 The meaning of the word binge has changed over the years. It has been in common use since the mid-nineteenth century when it meant chiefly a heavy drinking bout, according to the Oxford English Dictionary. However, today dictionaries often define a binge in terms of overeating.
#3 People often describe a feeling of altered consciousness during a binge. They feel as if they are in a trance, and their behavior seems almost automatic. They eat quickly and dry out the food by drinking a lot of water.
#4 The typical binge is done in secret. Some people are so ashamed of their binge eating that they go to great lengths to hide it, including by eating in a relatively normal manner when they are with others.
