Mind-Body breakthrough: therapy boosts Self-Esteem in students with eating issues
NCT ID NCT07573774
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a type of talking therapy called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), combined with education about eating, could help female university students who struggle with eating attitudes. 120 students took part, with half receiving the therapy and half not. After the program, the therapy group showed better self-esteem, body image, and less anxiety compared to the other group. The results suggest this approach can be a helpful tool for improving mental well-being in young women facing eating challenges.
