Binge eating disorder is the most common eating disorder worldwide, and cognitive behavioral therapy is the treatment of choice for this condition. Thus, it is important to know the efficacy of an internet-based delivery of this intervention, which would make it more readily available. de Zwaan and colleagues enrolled 178 adult individuals with binge eating problems in a prospective, multicenter, randomized, noninferiority clinical trial to examine the efficacy of face-to-face vs Internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy. Symptoms of binge eating improved faster and significantly more with face-to-face relative to internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy.
