Sažetak

In this article we summarized the recent research of the food addiction, diagnosis, treatment and prevention, which is carried out
in this area. The concept of food addiction is new and complex, but proven to be very important for understanding and solving the
problem of obesity. First part of this paper emphasizes the neurological studies, whose results indicate the similarity of brain
processes that are being activated during drug abuse and during eating certain types of food. In this context, different authors speak
of “hyper-palatable”, industrial food, saturated with salt, fat and sugar, which favor an addiction. In the section on diagnostic and
instruments constructed for assessing the degree of dependence, main diagnostic tool is standardized Yale Food Addiction Scale
constructed by Ashley Gearhardt, and her associates. Since 2009, when it was first published, this scale is used in almost all
researches in this area and has been translated into several languages. Finally, distinguish between prevention and treatment of food
addiction was made. Given that there were similarities with other forms of addictive behavior, the researchers recommend the
application of traditional addiction treatment.
