Food Noise

Often misunderstood and confused with physical hunger, food noise is obsessive, incessant thoughts about food that won’t STFU. Like a phone that keeps ringing, food noise is so distracting it’s all you can think about–and it can make you more likely to overeat. It may seem like the term came out of nowhere, but leading obesity specialist Dr. Spencer Nadolsky has talked about his patient’s food noise for years.

“Wait, there’s a word for food noise? I thought I was just me.”
“Can someone tell me how to turn off this food noise? It’s constant and it’s driving me crazy.”

“People who don’t have food noise will never get it–the thoughts just won’t stop.”
