It is a fact that people often turn to food and snacks when they are stressed, lonely, sad, anxious or bored. But, emotional eating can also be associated with positive emotions, such as the pleasure of sharing a dessert on Valentine's Day.

At times, emotional eating is associated with important, but sad life events, such as an accident, death or a divorce. But, more often, it is the myriad little everyday stresses that cause people to seek out comfort, or distraction in food.

People can learn to eat emotionally. A child who is always given a treat after an important achievement can grow up using the treats as a reward for a job well done, such as a child who receives cookies for stop crying.
