Article Synopsis
- Binge eating and self-induced vomiting are prevalent symptoms of eating disorders that are often analyzed through self-reports, which can be unreliable.
- This study explored the use of continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) to identify these eating behaviors by analyzing blood glucose responses in 22 adults over two weeks.
- The study found that CGM data could accurately classify binge eating (88% accuracy) and vomiting (79% accuracy), indicating its potential for improving research and treatment methods for eating disorders.
Objective: Understanding the perspectives of behavioral weight loss (BWL) participants could inform whether, how, and for whom BWL should be offered.
Method: All 126 participants in a clinical trial of BWL for adults with binge-eating disorder (BED) and overweight/obesity were contacted about a qualitative study. 45 participants, 11 of whom had dropped out of the parent study, completed qualitative interviews.
Objective: Emotion dysregulation (i.e., a multi-component term comprising nonacceptance of emotional responses, difficulty engaging in goal-directed behaviour, impulse control difficulties, lack of emotional awareness, limited access to emotion regulation strategies, and lack of emotional clarity) is a well-established transdiagnostic risk and maintenance factor for eating disorders.
