Nocturnal eating disorders

The goal of my blog is to share information about overlooked eating disorders. In this post, I discuss the neurobiology of nocturnal eating disorders and how they are treated with pharmacotherapy.

• Desynchronization of the body's circadian rhythms might cause night eating syndrome.

• Dysfunction in the brain's reward and motivation processing might cause sleep-related eating disorder.
