In this study, we examined the effects of an exercise intervention in the treatment of obese women with binge eating disorder (BED).
Subjects were randomized to one of two 6-month treatment programs that included an identical exercise component (n = 44) or to a delayed treatment control condition (n = 33). Exercise level, binge eating frequency, and depressive symptomatology were assessed pre- and posttreatment.
Women who received active treatment reported significantly greater increases in their weekly exercise frequency than did control subjects. At posttreatment, 81.4% of subjects who had received treatment were abstinent from binge eating. Compared to women who were not abstinent at posttreatment, abstinent women evidenced significant changes in exercise frequency and caloric expenditure. However, weight loss and improvements in depressive symptomatology were not related to exercise participation.
These results suggest that exercise may be an important aspect of BED treatment and useful in promoting abstinence from binge eating.
在本研究中，我们考察了运动干预对患有暴饮暴食症（BED）的肥胖女性的治疗效果。
将受试者随机分为两个为期6个月的治疗项目组之一，这两个项目都包含相同的运动部分（n = 44），或者分为延迟治疗对照组（n = 33）。在治疗前后评估运动水平、暴饮暴食频率和抑郁症状。
接受积极治疗的女性报告称，其每周运动频率的增加显著高于对照组受试者。在治疗后，接受治疗的受试者中有81.4%不再暴饮暴食。与治疗后仍未戒除暴饮暴食的女性相比，戒除的女性在运动频率和热量消耗方面有显著变化。然而，体重减轻和抑郁症状的改善与运动参与无关。
这些结果表明，运动可能是暴饮暴食症治疗的一个重要方面，有助于促进戒除暴饮暴食。
