Abstract:
... Food insecurity (FI) may increase risk for binge eating through a “feast-or-famine” cycle, where fluctuations in food availability correspond to alternating periods of food restriction and opportunities for binge eating, but research on this topic is limited. To clarify the relationship between food availability and binge eating in the context of FI, this study examined the association between mom ...
