Overcoming a Binge Eating Disorder | Phil Williams
Sugar is woven into our culture as a reward, a comfort and a celebration. But for some people, the relationship with food becomes far more complicated - and potentially life-threatening.
Broadcaster and journalist Phil Williams has written with extraordinary candour about living with binge eating disorder and the hidden toll it took on his physical and mental health. In this Live Long conversation, he describes the shame, self-loathing and health scares that finally forced him to confront his addiction.
It's a powerful reminder that living well isn't simply about adding years to life, but understanding the behaviours that can take those years away.
This episode includes strong language.
