Unpacking Binge Eating: The Brain's Role in Food Addiction

We need to understand that the brain is just like a bunch of wires, it's just like a big pile of patterns.
Ever wondered why binge eating feels impossible to control? In this episode of 'Head-to-Heal', Jiordana Saade, a certified holistic nutritionist with a rich background in behavioural neuropsychology and hypnosis, dives into the science behind binge eating disorders and food addiction. Jiordana explains how our brains are wired in ways that make eating disorders harder to overcome than even drug addictions.
She breaks down the complex relationship between obesity and eating psychopathology, shedding light on how chronic stress messes with our brain's reward system. Emotional ups and downs can lead to impulsive and addictive behaviours, making the struggle with food even more challenging. Jiordana's approach is both empathetic and informative, offering a deep understanding of the connection between the brain and body.
Whether you're battling binge eating yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode provides valuable insights into the underlying causes and potential treatments. Tune in for a heartfelt and enlightening discussion that could change the way you think about food and addiction.
