The American Psychiatric Association defines eating disorders as, “behavioral conditions characterized by severe and persistent disturbance in eating behaviors and associated distressing thoughts and emotions.” Eating disorders affect 28 million people in the US. The most common are anorexia, bulimia, and binging. Medical interventions are frequently necessary due to a combination of malnutrition and co-occurring disorders such as addiction, alcohol use disorder, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD).
There are several possible causes of eating disorders. The eating disorder often begins as an unhealthy body image coupled with an insatiable desire to fit into a particular social grouping. Although some eating disorders may have genetic factors involved in their origin, personality traits and social pressures play a much larger role in their development. Young people are the highest risk category for eating disorders; bulimia and anorexia are most common in those 18 years old, and binging is most common in young adults around 21 years of age.

Researchers discovered nearly two-thirds of participants with treatment-resistant Anorexia Nervosa who received multiple ketamine infusions, combined with an opioid-blocking medication, saw a complete elimination of their compulsive thought patterns. And more than 50% returned to behaviors of healthier eating for a long period after their discharge from the hospital. This makes ketamine one of the most effective treatments for eating disorders available to patients.
3,4-methylenedioxy-methamphetamine (MDMA) therapy is an upcoming, highly effective and innovative treatment approach for those suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental health conditions. It combines the psychoactive compound MDMA with guided psychological support, and has shown as much as a 75% success rate in patients suffering from PTSD, setting an unprecedented standard for treatment. MDMA therapy is not currently available, but expected to gain FDA approval later this year.
