More about the book
Phil Werdell is a recovering food addict who has been particularly successful over the years in helping others understand the disease of food addiction in such a way that they can recover. This book contains a description of his introductory lecture in which members of the recovering community identified their own experiences which proved to them that they were suffering from a substance use disorder with food. In this edition, he has added the review of the science that he wrote with members of the Food Addiction Institute's International Advisory Board in order to provide evidence that food addiction is a disease different from obesity and eating disorders. As a separate disease, food addiction requires special treatment.
