BINGE EATING DISORDER


Binge eating disorder (BPD) has been known since the 1950s in close relationship with bulimia nervosa (BN), and appears in the context of obesity, in the eyes of a culture in which Image and thinness make these bodily situations to be seen as something more than objectionable.

It occurs when the individual loses control by not stopping eating, eating quickly even when he has no appetite. This causes embarrassment in itself so to hide it, keep eating. Their weight can become normal or depending on the metabolism of the affected person, it can become obesity.

However, the damage that this causes at the health level, can range from diabetes, tension, very high cholesterol and triglycerides and fatty liver, even generating low self-esteem, anxiety and depression.




OBESITY


Obesity is a medical problem that is associated with a person who has an excessive amount of body fat that could affect health. Doctors generally consider a person to be obese if they have a high body mass index (BMI) of 30 points or more. BMI is a tool that doctors use to measure obesity. This calculation assesses whether an individual is of adequate weight for their height, age, and sex.


There are many direct and indirect causes that contribute to obesity. Genetics, behavior and environment are some of the main reasons that contribute to obesity. In the world we live in, it is very easy to adopt unhealthy behaviors when it comes to eating, and it is difficult to strive to stay healthy and get enough physical exercise. Genes could also cause disorders that can lead to obesity.

Each person will have different characteristics and must follow the most appropriate treatment for himself. It is important to address the problem as soon as possible. There are a myriad of methods to combat this problem, and one of the latest to join the list is CBD for treating obesity.



EATING DISORDERS AND THE ENDOCANNABINOID SYSTEM


The endocannabinoid system (SEC) is a network of endocannabinoid receptors, enzymes, and molecules that maintains homeostasis or a variety of healthy functions in the body. CB1 receptors, found in the central nervous system, transmit a "calm" signal to overactive neurons. Because these receptors abound in the brain regions that control food intake, clinical evidence suggests that there may be a link between a faulty SEC and the development of an eating disorder.

“The ECS is involved in the regulation of energy and food balance, and CB1 receptors - one of the two types of cannabinoid receptors in our brains, the other being the CB2 receptors - are abundant in regions of the brain that regulate hunger and hunger. they control eating behaviors. Due to the way they bind to CB1 receptors, ingested cannabinoids can help reduce anxiety in patients and increase (or decrease, in the case of high-CBD strains) the amount of food they eat.



On this way we can conclude according to various studies that suggest that cannabidiol (CBD), a compound extracted from the Cannabis sativa plant, could be useful in the therapeutic management of eating disorders due to its anxiolytic, antidepressant, antipsychotic and neuroprotective action.

In addition, CBD has shown great promise as a natural solution for managing weight and maintaining a healthy weight. It is important to remember that you should always follow a slow and low dosage strategy and avoid high doses.
