What is Food addiction?
This is what brain imaging and other studies have found about how compulsive overeating affects the brain’s pleasure centers.

Dopamine and other chemicals in the brain that makes you feel good are also released by foods that are very tasty. When people eat certain foods that make them feel good and cause more dopamine to be sent along the brain’s reward pathway, they quickly feel the need to eat again.
