Genetic and environmental contributions to obesity and binge eating

19 Mar 2003

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Binge eating is present in a substantial proportion of obese individuals. A tendency toward obesity has been identified as a risk factor for eating disorders such as bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder.
