Intermittent Fasting Diets and Disordered Eating Protection, risk and dieting: Intermittent fasting diets and disordered eating Jasmin Langdon-Daly D.Clin.Psy. Thesis (Volume 1) 2016 University College London UCL Doctorate in Clinical Psychology Thesis declaration form I confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature: Name: Jasmin Langdon-Daly Date: 09.06.16 2 Overview Consideration of factors and behaviours which may increase the risk of disordered eating, or protect against these difficulties and promote resilience, can inform efforts to prevent and intervene. Part One of this thesis is a systematic review of research into protective factors against eating disorders and disordered eating in proximal social systems. A range of potential protective factors in families, schools, peer groups and neighbourhoods are identified. Many of these factors may be non-specific to eating difficulties, promoting a range of positive outcomes, while others may be more specific to disordered eating. Methodological issues in the literature which limit the ability to draw firm conclusions are discussed. Part Two presents empirical research into the impact of intermittent fasting (IF) diets on eating psychopathology, binge eating, food craving and mood. Contrary to expectation, starting a 5:2 IF diet did not result in increases in disordered eating or binge eating in healthy adult dieters, and in fact appeared to result in improvements in all outcomes. Higher scores on measures of risk factors for eating disorders at baseline were associated with greater reductions in disordered and binge-eating over the 28 day IF period. Limitations to interpretation of results are considered, along with potential clinical applications and suggestions for further research. Part Three presents a critical appraisal of the literature review and empirical paper. Assumptions informing the research questions, aspects of the research process, and potential interpretations and implications of the findings are considered, with reference to the perspective of the scientist practitioner. The empirical research in Part Two was completed as part of a joint research project. The details of the other part of this project can be found in Mahony, K. (2016).

I am also hugely appreciative of my research partner, Kate Mahony. Our collaboration has helped to keep me smiling throughout the research process, and I have been able to achieve far more than expected with her working alongside. Throughout the project I have received help from many different people. I am grateful to Amber Chung, Research Assistant, for her help in processing data for the empirical paper. Thank you to the organisations and individuals who helped by posting and sharing our advertisements for participants, in particular The Fast Diet website, and to our participants themselves, for their interest and enthusiasm. Finally, I would like to express my gratitude to my husband, family, friends and coursemates, for all of their support. 6 Part 1: Literature Review Systems of protection: Protective factors against disordered eating in the proximal social environment 7 Abstract Aims: This review aims to identify and evaluate the literature investigating protective factors and eating disorders, to establish what is known about factors in proximal social systems (family, peer group, school and neighbourhood) that could be considered protective against the development of eating disorders/ eating pathology. Methods: A systematic review of the literature was conducted on five databases, using search terms related to eating disorders/disordered eating and protective factors. Studies were systematically screened for inclusion, and all included studies were evaluated for study quality. Results: Thirty-three studies met criteria for inclusion. The majority of studies looked at factors within families, including aspects of family relationships and family practices around food or eating. There was a particular research focus on the potential protective role of regular family meals. Potential protective factors also appear to exist at the level of schools, peer groups and neighbourhoods/communities. There were weaknesses in the methodology used in many studies, in particular an over-reliance on cross-sectional correlational methods. Conclusions: Many of the potential protective factors identified, such as social support and family connectedness, may be non-specific to eating difficulties, promoting general adaptive development and a range of positive development outcomes. Factors in the family environment around food, eating and weight, such as frequent family meals and avoiding comments about weight, may be more

    Eating Disorders – A Current Affair An Introduction An expanded introduction to National Eating Disorder Publications: An Integrated Response to Complexity National Eating Disorders Framework 2012 Clarity in Complexity Strategic Communication to Support the Prevention and Early Identification of Eating Disorders Eating disorders are a priority mainstream health issue in Australia Eating disorders are highly complex and serious mental illnesses within our community. They include Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, and Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (EDNOS)1. These disorders are associated with a high level of morbidity and mortality; in fact Anorexia Nervosa has the highest rate of mortality of any psychiatric illness. They can be long- term, disabling disorders, and they carry substantial costs – economic, social and loss of life. As serious mental disorders with significant consequences for physical health and quality of life as well as mental health, eating disorders require the same quality, breadth and accessibility to research funding, prevention interventions, treatment options, and community awareness programs as other serious physical or mental illnesses. Eating Disorders have a significant and highly underestimated impact on Australian society: Physically, as well as mentally, the person with the eating disorder is profoundly affected. Eating disorders involve wide-ranging medical complications which can affect every major organ in the body. In children and adolescents, eating disorders can affect

Sicignano The City College of New York SOMATIC DEPRESSION AND EATING DISORDERS 2 Abstract Depression is known to affect females in much greater numbers than males, with about three times as many women having the disorder as men (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). A similar gender disparity can be seen in eating disorders, where up to nine in ten sufferers are female (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). Studies have shown that most of the gender difference in depression occurs as a result of women experiencing a form of depression involving a number of body-centric symptoms, including headaches, weight changes, fatigue, and insomnia, which has been termed “somatic depression” (Silverstein et al., 2013). Some of the symptoms, such as a fear of becoming fat, restricting or binging, and an abnormal focus on shape, are also characteristic of eating disorders (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).

  • LCHF Nutrition/Intermittent Fasting
    LCHF Nutrition/Intermittent Fasting You are receiving this document because you are open to exploring an alternative nutritional lifestyle, one that in many ways contradicts conventional teachings and guidelines. I am here to help you! • Nutrition is such a loaded topic—almost a religious or political one—so I’m always looking for ways to explain nutrition that are as free from that baggage as possible. • So far, the framework I use to explain eating is based on modifying three parameters (calorie, dietary, and time restriction) in various combinations. • The “standard American diet” is essentially one the involves eating as much as you want (no calorie restriction), anything you want (no dietary restriction), and whenever you want (no time restriction). The further you can get away from this pattern of eating, the better you will be. You will be decreasing your risk for getting sick. What is Time Restricted Feeding or Intermittent Fasting? Well, it’s not a “diet” per se, but rather an eating pattern by basically eating just as the words sound: varying times of when you eat and when you don’t, for weight loss and many other health benefits. • Intermittent fasting plans only restrict when you eat, not what you eat. • However, I do recommend following a low carb diet (see additional information below) if you plan to intermittent fast, but there are technically no actual food restrictions. • With so many different ways to intermittent fast, it’s pretty easy to make this age-old practice work for you, your lifestyle and your goals. Whether you’re new to fasting or just looking to learn more about it.

  • Body Image Perception Among Undergraduate Females As It Relates to Disordered Eating and Depressive Symptoms
    Body Image Perception of Undergraduate Females as it Relates to Disordered Eating and Psychological Conditions Natalie Swierkosz Project Advisor: Dr. Jill Clutter Co-advisor: Dr. Chris Taylor Undergraduate Honors Thesis School of Allied Medical Professions The Ohio State University Abstract Objectives: The purpose of this research was to determine the accuracy of body image perception among domestic undergraduate women at four-year universities. Analysis was also performed to determine if women who overestimated body mass index (BMI) would be more likely to report the desire to lose weight and what behaviors they were using to do so, as well as if they were more likely to experience psychological disorders such as depression and anxiety. Previous research suggests that undergraduate females with a negative body image are at high risk for developing patterns of disordered eating and psychological conditions. Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study. Data was obtained through the American College Health Association and was analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS v 17.0). Data came from participants in the 2005 National College Health Assessment. For All males, graduate students, and international students were excluded in order to isolate the target population. Results: Results indicated that the majority of undergraduate females have an accurate body image perception. However, those women who overestimated their actual body weight were much more likely to express the desire to lose weight than those with accurate perception or those who underestimate. Women who perceive themselves as being heavier than they truly are were more likely to report taking action to lose weight, including partaking in unhealthy behaviors such as vomiting and taking diet pills.
