If you find yourself stress eating, here’s what a clinical dietician wants you to know

What is stress eating?

“Stress releases hormones that can lead to changes in eating patterns which prompts people to use food as a coping mechanism to help feel better. Research shows that in stressful conditions, the body tends to crave foods that are high in fat, salt, or carbohydrates,” explains Priyanka Lulla, clinical dietician at Sir HN Reliance Foundation Hospital, Mumbai.
