Abstrakt: Background and Aims: Dysfunctional eating behaviors may be associated with weight gain and have a negative impact on obesity. Intuitive eating is a strategy that helps with changing eating behaviors. This study aimed to analyze the effects of intuitive eating alone or combined with nutritional guidelines on eating behaviors, weight, and body mass index (BMI), in individuals with obesity.
Methods: This is a randomized clinical trial of 58 individuals (84.5% females and 84.5% candidates for bariatric surgery). The mean age was 40.5 years (SD = 9.1). The mean BMI was 48.3 kg/m 2 (SD = 7.4). Individuals were randomized into three groups: 1) the control group (CG; n = 18), who received an individualized meal plan, 2) the intuitive eating group (IEG; n = 23), and 3) the intuitive eating and nutritional guidelines application group (IEGDG; n = 17). The study lasted for six months. Eating behaviors were assessed using the Binge Eating Scale and Three Factor Eating Questionnaire, the 21-item version.
Results: Compared with the CG, the IEG and IEGDG did not differ in binge eating, cognitive restriction, emotional eating, and uncontrolled eating. Likewise, there were no significant differences in weight and BMI.
Conclusions: Intuitive eating alone or in combination with nutritional guidelines did not alter the general domains of eating behaviors, weight, and BMI in individuals with obesity. We suggest further studies involving other health professionals, as well as evaluating the effects of intuitive eating using scales, in addition to eating behaviors.
