become alcoholics -- and most people who eat food, even who overeat food, do not become food addicts/compulsive overeaters. BUT an addict is *not* someone with a healthy brain. There is something decidedly abnormal about not being able to stop eating even when one is full, even when one is nauseated or involuntarily vomitting from overeating, even when one is overweight, even when one is suffering from life-threatening obesity-related diseases. No one is claiming that people with this disease have healthy brains, any more than a person with Giles de la
Tourrette Syndrome or OCD and therefore engages in involuntary behavior has a healthy brain.

statistic albeit about morbidly obese sufferers and not necessarily about all compulsive eaters. I do not think this article should be merged w that of binge eating disorder necessarily because there is the difference of grazing behaviors. I do however think they should be linked. I do not think this article should be merged w that of eating disorders either because the DSM-IV-T is not considering adding this as a definition of a type of eating disorder. It is however, considering adding Binge Eating

He had to completely waste my time, and I'm not going to waste more of it by trying again to edit it. Yes, I have expertise in this area because I have a graduate degree in counseling, I've written a book on the subject, and I host an online support group for compulsive overeaters (normaleating.com). That should not disqualify me from commenting on the subject!! Lunacy. Anyone curious why the quality of some

I completely agree that this article is badly written. It's also full of inaccuracies and very incomplete.
