To examine the efficacy of a 12-week yoga program aimed at reducing binge eating severity.
A randomised trial was undertaken assigning participants to yoga (n=45) or wait-list control (n=45) groups. Of these, 25 in each group were analysed.
A community-based sample of women between 25 and 63 years of age who identified with diagnostic criteria for binge eating disorder (BED) and a BMI>25 were recruited for the study.
Primary outcomes included the Binge Eating Scale (BES) and International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Secondary outcomes comprised measures for BMI, hips and waist.
For the yoga group, self-reported reductions in binge eating and increases in physical activity were statistically significant. Small yet statistically significant reductions for BMI, hips and waist measurement were obtained. The wait-list control group did not improve significantly on any measures.
In conjunction with formal weekly sessions, home-based yoga programs are potentially efficacious for the treatment of binge eating.
研究一项为期12周旨在减轻暴饮暴食严重程度的瑜伽项目的疗效。
进行一项随机试验，将参与者分为瑜伽组（n = 45）或候补对照组（n = 45）。每组各有25名参与者接受分析。
招募了一个基于社区的样本，为年龄在25至63岁之间、符合暴饮暴食症（BED）诊断标准且BMI>25的女性。
主要结果包括暴饮暴食量表（BES）和国际体力活动问卷（IPAQ）。次要结果包括BMI、臀围和腰围测量指标。
对于瑜伽组，自我报告的暴饮暴食减少和体力活动增加具有统计学意义。BMI、臀围和腰围测量指标有小幅但具有统计学意义的下降。候补对照组在任何指标上均未显著改善。
结合每周的正式课程，基于家庭的瑜伽项目对治疗暴饮暴食可能有效。
