CNN (12/26, Hassan ) reports, “Food noise is incessant internal chatter about food that some people experience, which can make it hard for them to make healthy decisions about their nutrition.” The conversation around food noise “has grown, especially online, as more people taking popular weight-loss and diabetes medications realized the drugs seemed to turn off the noise.” While “there are varying theories about the root cause of food noise, and there isn’t a clear number of how many people experience it,” CNN adds that “most experts believe it’s real, even if awareness of it is only recently emerging.”
