My friend says there are three types of therapies to cure binge eating. what are they?

See below: Consider this 1- eat smart- certain foods are more "addictive" than others-especially high fat, high glycemic food 2-counseling and 12 step like overeaters anonymous 3 medications that help curb appettie 4-excercise regimens that also curb appetites.

TALK * ACTION * MEDS: So i believe it would be psychotherapy (talk)/ cognitive therapy (thoughts) / behavior therapy (actions). I would add in medications or pharmacotherapy as well. Combination of all the above at sometime or all together.

Binge Eating: People who compulsively overeat, though, may use food as their only way of coping with negative emotions. As a result, they often feel that their eating is out of control. They think about food all the time and feel guilty, ashamed, or depressed after eating. http://www.webmd.com/mental-health/eating-disorders/binge-eating-disorder/features/compulsive-overeating-and-how-to-stop-it
