Iā€™m assuming you are asking about Chinese herbal medicine, not just random herbal teas. Binge eating disorder is a potentially life threatening condition so you do not want to take this lightly.

Chinese Medicine, both acupuncture and properly prescribed herbal medicine, can be very helpful with a range of eating disorders and the associated physical and mental health issues. That said, you have to see someone in your area and receive proper recommendations that are consistently tailored as you walk along your path to healing to see improvement.

You are generally looking at working directly with a fully trained and licensed Chinese Medicine practitioner over the course of 6 months to 2 years in many cases, possibly longer - this along with western based counseling, possibly emdr and/or cbt therapies as well.

The general why of this can be found in the article ā€œtreating the cause vs. the symptomsā€.
