It is rare to find someone who is as knowledgeable as Dr. Joan Ifland in the field of food addiction. Her textbook, "Processed Food Addiction: Foundations, Assessment, and Recovery," provides the most extensive literature review on the subject - a valuable resource.
I'm also impressed with her work engaging online communities consisting of people suffering from food addiction. Dr. Ifland makes the case for processed food addiction using the science.
