Can you really be addicted to food? Prof Tracy Burrows talks about the signs and symptoms of food addiction and the latest research on addictive food substances versus addictive food behaviours. Her intervention, the TRACE program, is providing online treatment to help people living with food addiction address their relationship with food.


Professor Tracy Burrows is a Prof in Nutrition and Dietetics at the University of Newcastle and Co-director of Food and Nutrition Program Hunter Medical Research Institute. Her research in food addiction is showing there's no 'one size fits all' approach to nutrition. She combines psychology, medical radiation imaging and biochemistry in the hunt for more effective dietary assessment methods and treatment.
