It is time to tackle psychological determinants of obesity and eating disorders by Pietro Crescenzo

“…Obesity is a complex condition associated with many medical disorders as well as with psychological and emotional issues, as obese individuals are at high risk of developing psychiatric disorder [8] and given that etiological basis of eating disorders and obesity usually lies in some combination of psychosocial, environmental, and genetic or biological aspects, which often focus on body image problems. Body image perception results from interconnection of psychological, experiential, cultural and social factors. …”
