Brief Summary:
The identification of safe and effective strategies for weight loss and long-term maintenance is critical to reduce the alarming prevalence of obesity worldwide and mitigate obesity-associated health risks Specifically Binge Eating BE and Food Addiction FA behaviors are well known causes of failed weight loss and weight regain The definitions of their clinical phenotypes are currently evolving Recent evidence suggests that food choices behavior and reward may be driven also by taste perception
The hypothesis of this study is that subjects with dysfunctional eating behavior have different taste thresholds compared to obese subjects without eating disorders and that this characteristic influences food choice and eating behavior Identifying a difference in the taste thresholds between obese with and without eating disorder will allow us to understand why certain individuals over-consume or binge on densely caloric foods and to give them a tailored dietary treatment so as to maintain weight loss for a long time
The Binge eating and Food Addiction is assessed using Binge Eating Scale and Yale Food Addiction Scale 20 Subjects with obesity recruited are divided in 4 groups without eating disorder with food addiction FA with binge eating BE and with FA BE In these groups sweet and salty taste will be measured with the 3-Alternative-Forced-Choice method
