Do you have the newest eating disorder—it has to do with snacking and binge eating. Let's find out.

Could your snacking or binge eating be a medical disease? In this podcast, we're going to find out. 

The newest eating disorder is called Binge Eating Disorder or (B.E.D). 

Signs of a binge eating disorder: 

 • Excessive eating at least 1 time a week for 3 months

 • Eating every 2 hours

 • Eating more rapidly 

 • Eating until uncomfortable 

 • Eating alone 

 • Feeling guilty after eating 

 • Being on a fad diet where you cut out food groups 

 • Engaging in sporadic fasting and binging 


There is a drug for a binge eating disorder called Vyvanse. This is a new application of an old drug that has been used for other things. It's the only FDA approved solution for this disease. 

Side effects of a Vyvanse:

 • Sudden cardiac death 

 • Stroke 

 • Significant high blood pressure 

 • Psychosis 

 • High rate of abuse 

 • Seeing and hearing things 


I am definitely not promoting Vyvanse as the solution to this disease. It's my opinion that snacking and binge eating is not a medical disease. I think it's a normal thing that a lot of people go through, and if they just did healthy keto combined with intermittent fasting, their need for snacks would go down.
