There is a binge eating gene!!!!

Image result for binge eating

A team from Boston University, Massachusetts, found a network of genes associated with gorging. where a sheaf is formed around a nerve fibre, allowing impulses to move quickly.

This gene, linked to binge eating, could lead to new drugs to combat obesity, and other eating disorders such as bulimia.

The gene, known as CYFIP2, suggests that some people can honestly not help over-indulging on food, drinks or drugs!!

Interesting!!
