title: Psychological interventions for eating disorders.
abstract: Eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder, are common conditions, characterised by disturbances of eating behaviours and a core psychopathology centred on food, eating and body image concerns.1,2Eating disorders are associated with medical and psychological comorbidities; a signiﬁcantly impaired health-related quality of life; a high rate of inpatient, outpatient and emergency care; significant healthcare costs; and increased mortality.3-10Here, we focus on the evidence for non-drug interventions for eating disorders.
