What Causes Binge Eating Compulsions? With Jason Stanley
Description
Obsessive-compulsive behaviours are rooted in a physical brain issue and therefore are not an archetypical psychological / mental health issue. That is a big difference! All the talk therapies and pharmacological therapies of every type have not been able to address the underlying brain issue, however there is a strategy that has been working to break such fixations in a ground breaking trial.
My special guest today is Jason Stanley, a social scientist who began research into the cause and cure of obesity with a medical anthropology field study in 1979. Since then he has published multiple articles, two books, and conducted multiple clinical trials. In early 2022 he began a 2+ year clinical trial based in neural plasticity healing the root cause of chronic emotional eating resulting in obesity. The success is a whopping 85% compared to the standard long term success of only 3% (97% FAILURE) for the weight loss industry.
