Emotional Eating: Why It Happens and How to Stop It
Why food
Negative emotions may lead to a feeling of emptiness or an emotional void.
Food is believed to be a way to fill that void and create a false feeling of “
Emotional vs. true hunger
Physical hunger
- It develops slowly over time.
- You desire a variety of food groups.
- You feel the sensation of fullness and take it as a cue to stop eating.
- You have no negative feelings about eating.
Emotional hunger
- It comes about suddenly or abruptly.
- You crave only certain foods.
- You may binge on food and not feel a sensation of fullness.
- You feel guilt or shame about eating.
Emotional hunger isn’t easily quelled

Popular types of fasting
- Intermittent fasts: eating no food or massively cutting back on calorie intake only intermittently;
- Time-restricted feeding: involves consuming calories only for a 4- to 6-hour window each day.
- Periodic fasts, the most extreme, typically last several days or longer.
- Fasting-mimicking diet, a plant-based diet that involves eating very few calories for several days each month.
Religious fasting
Many religious groups incorporate periods of fasting into their rituals, though the focus there tends to be more spiritual than health-oriented: Muslims fast from dawn until dusk during the month of Ramadan, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, and Hindus who traditionally fast on designated days of the week or calendar year.
