Roth’s approach to combating compulsive eating is to attack the problem from the root. She is a firm believer that through creating a solid foundation spiritually, anyone can get a hold of there compulsive eating behavior. Roth says that she has tried a long list of failing diet methods that drove her to the brink of suicide. After her dark times she finally realized that the issue had more to do with her psyche than with her body, and that overeating was only a symptom of a spiritual sickness.
