This may be partly because almost all existing trials employ laughable definitions of remission and recovery and stop long before participants could realistically be considered stably healthy. But it may also be because the constituents of the Mando treatment that are different from CBT are substantially enhancing its efficacy.  I ask what the efficacy of the Mando method means for you if you\u2019re recovering alone without the benefit of a Mando clinic or other therapeutic support for weight restoration. The main elements of the Mando method are: the Mandometer, which progressively normalises your eating speed and your fullness signalling; rest in a warm room for an hour after eating; and no structured exercise. And because this is a clinic where all food is prepared for you and you eat at set times, you\u2019re also eating \u2018normal\u2019 foods at \u2018normal\u2019 times.  For more information about treatment please visit the mando webpage: https:\/\/mando.se ","author_name":"Wake Up Podcast with Viv Trader","author_url":"https:\/\/sites.libsyn.com\/446556","html":"
