Binge eating among older women: prevalence rates and health correlates across three independent samples

ConclusionsAcross three very different samples in terms of race/ethnicity, education, food security status, measurements, and sampling methodology, we found fairly consistent rates of self-reported BE at least weekly (19 –26%). Results suggest that BE is related to negative health indices among older women and support the need for more research in this population.
