Is it possible to be addicted to food? According to the experts who are studying the mind and body's response to food, the answer is a resounding yes. Ashley Gearhardt, PhD, Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of Michigan, joins me to weigh in on the insidious nature of food addiction. She’ll also share with us how she created the Yale Food Addiction Scale, an internationally recognized tool to identify those who are most likely to experience an addictive response to food, and what we can do to combat food addiction.
