Binge Eating Genetic?
August 19th, 2007 by Paul JohnsonEver notice some people are more susceptible to eating lots of food? They just don’t know when to stop. Most thing its just bad habits, and I also believe binge eating is a learned behaviour over the years. However, studies by the new England Journal of Medicine a couple years ago pointed to a possible link between binge eating and a gene mutation.
Interesting enough, out of 495 in the study, only 5% had this gene mutation. What this means is, most people who are overweight are because of their habits and lifestyle and not because of this so called binge eating gene. I think most just need to stop looking for an excuse to feel pity. No one in this world is going to feel sorry for you, so stop feeling sorry for yourself.
