Binge eating

Noah Kurland Ann Blumer Abnormal Psychology 26 Oct 2017 Reflection #2 (TOPIC 3) Let me take you back. It was a dinner reflective of both my social conformity as well as my ignorance. After all, as I peered around the room, it was difficult to find eyes that were latched on to actual reality and not virtual reality. So what do you expect? I was a newborn teen and my Chanukah present had just arrived in the mail. I was just as eager as the rest of the restaurant to use it. So I did. It was…

basic themes and principles. Without food, we would all die of starvation and malnutrition. The way a family has dinner or even what they have for dinner can be a way to determine the strength of the relationships. If a family is ordering takeout and eating in separate rooms they are very divided and care less about their health and each others well being than to eat a home cooked meal together. In films, relationships, nostalgia, and race & gender roles can be interpreted by food or situations…

in the environment and argues that purchasing local food produce is not always the best thing to do. He backs up this claim by doing the following: first, he acknowledges the opposing argument by stating he enjoys the “pleasure and advantages” of eating what’s regional, fresh and in season; next, he presents statistical figures stated by advocates of the local food movement and brings them down due to their misunderstanding of the…

Since before even learning to recite the alphabet, parents and teachers taught their children to eat meat and dairy in order to grow tall and strong. Young generations are taught to believe in a vision of flowing green grasses and content livestock grazing in their glory. But is it not pertinent to consider the derivative of the hotdog these children eat at lunch? Should the effect of the farming of livestock on the human body, the environment, and the lives of the animals involved? It is only…

Imagine yourself twice as wide as you are now, with very high cholesterol, hypertension and diabetes. This can be the effects fast food has on our precious body. However, Morgan Spurlock, the director of Supersize Me, undergoes a social experiment in which he has to eat everything off the McDonald’s menu in 30 days. Anything that he needs to consume needs to come from McDonald’s. Spurlock created this documentary to show audiences the effect fast food has on people’s health such as fatty liver,…

How does cereal get soggy? Thousands of people around the world eat cereal with milk everyday. People eat cereal in the morning for breakfast, in the afternoon for lunch, and at night for dinner. Many people love cereal and eat the product all day long. How is cereal made? Grain is often cleaned and crushed. Then pressure cooked. The result is mushy and soft that can be shaped into a loop or a circle. Flaked cereal is flattened and quickly toasted. Shredded cereal grains are cooked, cooled,…

or maybe it was the excitement that I got from opening that twelve-piece nugget box that had nothing but tastiness on the inside from McDonald’s, and let’s not forget about their delicious, salty fries either. Guess what though? After a while of eating all this delicious, unhealthy food, I started to get bigger and bigger. It wasn’t until around late 2015 that I really started to notice how big I had gotten, and it started to bother me; so, I decided to make a change. That change would be to…

Many people do not know the difference between a vegetarian or a vegan, in fact some think there is no difference between the two, that the term vegan is just a shortened term for vegetarian. People are often told you are what you eat, if a person eats fatty and greasy food on a daily basis that is exactly what they will reflect, by always being tired and sluggish. Therefore, our bodies are only as clean as the food we feed them. That’s when the most popular healthy diets play a role. Despite…

Let’s say you’re an average American living your daily life at work and it’s close to quitting time. One would stare at the wall clock in your office and notice that it only says 3:30. At this point your stomach is empty, and growls for a snack to power through to the end of your work day. Wouldn’t it be nice to have some cheez-itz? A simple and square snack yet perfect enough to hold off until dinner. Just the perfect amount of cheese in each bite that keeps one wanting more and more! “We…
