Summary
A single dose of psilocybin, combined with psychotherapy, significantly reduced binge-eating episodes. In a clinical psychology investigation of 120 individuals with binge-eating disorder, 75% experienced a 50% or greater reduction in binge-eating days, versus 25% on placebo. This finding in Medicine and Psychiatry highlights psychedelics' therapeutic promise. Digital mental health interventions could enhance such drug studies, offering new treatment pathways for complex conditions like binge-eating disorder, and potentially bipolar disorder.
