PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS OF FOOD ADDICTION

​

 • Do you think you cannot control your intake of food, especially junk food or high sugar foods?

​

• Have you tried different diets or weight loss programs, but none has worked permanently?

​

• Have you found yourself vomiting, using laxatives, diuretics, or exercising a lot to avoid a weight gain after you have eaten a lot?

​

Some food addicts are obese and have tried numerous methods for weight control (diets, drugs, surgery, etc.) yet nothing has created a permanent solution.

​

Other food addicts have never been obese. Their physical weight has been controlled by extreme measures such as excessive exercise, purging through vomiting or laxatives (bulimia), or the severe and unhealthy limiting of food substances (anorexia).

​

No matter which version of food addiction fits you, all of these symptoms become more severe with time and eventually lead to physical problems that create an early and sometimes painful death.
