In this episode, you’ll learn that there are two parts of your brain at work in binge eating and recovery.  The lower brain (also called the primitive or animal brain) produces the urges to binge, and the higher brain (also called the rational or human brain) gives you the capacity to stop acting on those urges.  You will learn how it’s possible to use your higher brain to take control back from the lower brain.
