Eating Mindfully: Can it Help Combat Globesity?


The concept of mindful eating has been gaining popularity in recent years, and as the global epidemic of obesity - referred to as ‘globesity‘ by the World Health Organization (WHO) - persists, it’s not difficult to see why (O’Reilly et al. 2014; WHO 2017).
The Effects of Globesity
The WHO asserts that while obesity is a visible issue, it is often neglected. There are concerns that serious diet-related health detriments will arise if the issue of obesity is not addressed as soon as possible, resulting in preventable illness or premature death (WHO 2017).
Diet-related health conditions that may develop include:
- Diabetes Mellitus;
- Cardiovascular disease;
- Hypertension;
- Stroke; and
- Some types of cancer.
