Eating Attitude Test (EAT-40)

Would you know that one of the organs most easily affected by your feelings is the stomach? So, emotions directly affect the eating pattern. For example, when you are stressed, you may eat more or less than usual. It is not directly related to your stomach, but to how you feel. Still, it's okay to go out of your diet some days, but if this spreads over days and reaches a point that affects your daily life, then you need to take a step both for your physical health and to live more peacefully. In addition, eating attitudes are not only related to the diet and how much you eat but also to your relationship with food outside of feeding times and how eating makes you feel. For this, you can solve the Eating Attitudes Test and decide what steps you should take according to your eating attitudes. If you conclude that you have a predisposition to an eating disorder as a result of the test, it would be beneficial to get a specialist's opinion on what type of eating disorder you are tending to. Also, I would like to remind you that this test is not a diagnostic tool, but it can help with making a diagnosis. You can also take this test to realize whether you are predisposed to eating disorder behavior!
