Combined alcohol and disordered eating (drunkorexia) are alcohol fueled weight management behaviors. Mindfulness negatively relates to both disordered eating and alcohol use. Participants ( = 344, average age 20) were primarily female (85.2%, = 293), and Caucasian (82.6%, = 284). Students reported drunkorexia and mindfulness. Drunkorexia behaviors were negatively correlated with Acting with Awareness (AA; full attention to a present moment; -.21, .001) and Nonjudgment (NJ; understanding and leniency toward oneself; = -.22, < .001). Drunkorexia motivations are significantly correlated with AA ( = -.13, .01) and NJ (, .001). Structural equation modeling revealed higher levels of NJ related to higher levels of drunkorexia. The objective was to determine a potential relationship between drunkorexia behaviors and motivations, and trait mindfulness. Findings suggest a nonjudgmental disposition relates to lower levels of drunkorexia.

Background/objectives: Disordered eating (DE) is a wide-spectrum condition, represented by altered eating patterns, behaviors, and attitudes aimed at controlling food intake, body weight, and shape, which does not necessarily satisfy the diagnostic criteria for an eating disorder of clinical severity. DE is frequently reported among athletes, but its prevalence and associated factors have not been fully elucidated. In this study, we intended to assess the prevalence of DE among adult athletes from different sports disciplines in Italy and Lebanon and to identify the factors associated with DE.

Background: Social media platforms have become integral to daily life and increasingly disseminate health, nutrition, and food information.

The increasing prevalence of disordered eating, characterized by abnormal eating behaviors and attitudes, has become a global public health concern.
