Causes & Effects of Binge Eating Disorder

McCallum Place provides leading binge eating disorder treatment to ensure long-lasting recovery for a healthier and more satisfying life.

Many of the medical complications that are associated with binge eating disorder are those linked to obesity. As the major long-term consequence of compulsive overeating is weight gain, this eating disorder typically leads to medical complications including heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes. In addition, kidney disease and/or kidney failure, stroke, and sleep apnea also tend to result over time from binge eating disorder when it remains untreated. While binge eaters are not necessarily obese, obesity is a frequent outcome if the binge eating and compulsive overeating behaviors continue over long periods of time.

Mccallum saved my life from anorexia. If it wasn’t for my amazing team there (therapist, dietitian, and psychiatrist) i wouldn’t be alive today. if you want to get rid of your eating disorder once and for all, this is the place to go; especially if you’re an athlete like myself. they have an amazing program just for athletes. please consider coming to McCallum. there is nothing i would say badly about this place.
