Today the number of individuals struggling with morbid obesity along with other related health illnesses is rising. Far more plus more obese individuals are looking for treatment for the goal of weight reduction. This has led to booming up of weight reduction clinics, faulty dieting and fitness centres practices in the society of ours. Binge Eating Disorder (BED) is a proposed new diagnostic category in DSM IV TR cited as an illustration of an eating disorder not otherwise specified (NOS). The phrase binge eating was launched more than seventy years back to summarize problematic behaviour present in a subgroup of obese people and as a subgroup of Bulimia Nervosa.
