Many reasons for obesity

Posted by Chris Christian May 29, 2006

Also known as emotional eating or compulsive overeating, I think it is important to take a closer look at this often overlooked disorder. There are many obese people in this country today, over 60 million, and the AOA feels that not enough attention is paid to this topic. If we can help people identify the cause of their problem then maybe we can make a dent in the number of obese Americans. I am including a link with an article www.suite101.com/article.cfm/eating_disorders/20958 by Heather Mudgett, that offers some wonderful insight into the problem of compulsive overeating and contacts sites for help, check it out.
