Binge Eating Disorder In Adolescence

Hema Ramdat Chamberlain University College of Nursing NR 326 Mental Health Professor: John De Oca August 5, 2022

Binge Eating Disorder In Adolescence Many teenagers with binge eating disorders might not be aware of how severe their symptoms are, they could feel embarrassed by their actions or wonder sometimes why they can't seem to quit eating. The media constantly bombards us with messages about losing weight. One of the most prevalent eating disorders affecting teenagers is binge eating disorder. According to Marzilli et al. (2018), “binge eating disorder is the most prevalent eating disorder in the United States”. Although it can afflict anyone at any age, it usually starts in the late teens or early 20s. Overeating and binge eating are commonly mixed up, yet there are clear distinctions between the two. Overeating may be a typical eating pattern, but binge eating disorder is a “serious mental disease that, if untreated, can have negative effects” (Marzilli et al., 2018) Many teenagers with binge eating disorders might not be aware of how severe their symptoms are.

Article Summary Epidemiological research on ED in adolescents is still in its infancy because ED has only lately been recognized as a mental illness. According to Marzilli et al. (2018), “13 studies, 5 of which used DSM-IV criteria and 8 of which used DSM-5 criteria, documented the prevalence of BED”. In general, a review of the literature on the frequency of BES shows that this disorder affects teenagers fairly frequently, with “rates ranging from 1% to 5%”. (Marzilli et al., 2018). Additionally, the study looked at the prevalence of BED in teenage females “reported a rate of 343 per 100,000”(Marzilli et al., 2018) The article indicated a study supported this need and included data showing that BES increases adolescent risk for obesity, drug use, suicide ideation, and other mental health issues. Marzilli et al. (2018) investigated “Nine studies that included both sexes and found significant gender differences mostly concerned adolescent girls. It is noteworthy that girls had a larger risk of BED than boys did (1%-4% vs. 0%-1%,

perfectionism, influences and depressive symptoms, weight and diet issues, environmental and physical risk factors linked to parental influence on children's eating behavior, parental psychopathology and psychopathological risk, early traumatic experiences, and the presence of parents, as well as biological factors. Together, these findings help us understand the long-term effects of BED and support the development of evidence-based prevention programs and treatment approaches that address development and risk factors for development. They are also helpful in longitudinal studies and randomized controlled trials. This implies the necessity of carrying out BED maintenance Aim for BES BED. Article Critique Marzilli et al.'s (2018) research demonstrated the long-term effects of BED and supported the development of evidence-based prevention programs and treatment approaches that address development and risk factors for development. The information provided are helpful in longitudinal studies and randomized controlled trials. This implies the necessity of carrying out BED maintenance.

Conclusion The article show that BED, which offers major dangers to physical and mental health, is more likely to develop throughout adolescence, the most prevalent ED subtype of puberty. The complicated etiology of BES has been shown by a number of research. This entails biological factors (particularly familial genetic predisposition and epigenetic processes), psychological factors (personality traits like perfectionism and impulsivity, influences or depressive symptoms, weight and diet issues, and physical dissatisfaction), and environmental risk factors linked to parental influence on childhood eating behavior, parental psychopathology and

psychopathological risk, early negative experiences, and the adversity. In addition, the fact that BED is quite prevalent in teenage males. Future research with teenagers with BES, both male and female, is therefore required.
