Eating disorders (EDs) are negative eating habits that have harmful mental and physical effects. EDs primarily affect young women. Most cases are diagnosed in adolescence. The most common EDs are bulimia nervosa (BN), anorexia nervosa (AN), and binge eating disorder (BED). There is a strong association between EDs and substance use disorder (SUD) in adolescence. Bulimia nervosa and alcohol use disorder (AUD) are the most common co-occurrence. There is a high behavioral association between EDs and AUD. Alcohol consumption could be a primary trigger for binge eating in women with BN. Alcohol can be used as an appetite suppressor and as a compensatory behavior to avoid food. The objective of this literature review was to explore the relation between EDs and SUD. The results of the study showed SUD is common with EDs. There are many reasons for this association such as shared neurobiological mechanisms, personality features, environmental and genetic factors.
饮食失调是具有有害身心影响的不良饮食习惯。饮食失调主要影响年轻女性。大多数病例在青春期被诊断出来。最常见的饮食失调类型是神经性贪食症(BN)、神经性厌食症(AN)和暴饮暴食症(BED)。在青春期,饮食失调与物质使用障碍(SUD)之间存在密切关联。神经性贪食症和酒精使用障碍(AUD)是最常见的共病情况。饮食失调与酒精使用障碍之间存在高度行为关联。饮酒可能是神经性贪食症女性暴饮暴食的主要诱因。酒精可被用作食欲抑制剂以及避免进食的代偿行为。这篇文献综述的目的是探讨饮食失调与物质使用障碍之间的关系。研究结果表明物质使用障碍与饮食失调很常见。这种关联有许多原因,如共同的神经生物学机制、人格特征、环境和遗传因素。
