Prevalence and contributing factors to recurrent binge eating and obesity among black adults with food insufficiency: findings from a cross-sectional study from a nationally-representative sample.

Our results also underscore the importance of considering ethnicity as different patterns emerged between African American and Afro-Caribbean participants.
