Food addiction refers to when the need to eat becomes compulsive or uncontrollable. This compulsive behavior may respond to an emotion, such as stress, sadness, or anger.

The human body needs food to function, but food addiction is when people become dependent on certain foods. Foods that contribute to a food addiction are usually unhealthful, such as chips, candy, or white bread.

Food addiction is closely associated with eating disorders, including obesity, bulimia, and binge eating disorder.
