<unk>  (sometimes abbreviated as CHSP or CS) is a compensatory behavior associated with several eating disorders that involves the<unk> ing of food and<unk> ting it out before swallowing, often as an attempt to avoid ingestion of unwanted or unnecessary calories. CS can be used as a way to taste food viewed as “forbidden” or unhealthy. Individuals who partake in CS typically have an increased desire for thinness, increased lack of control (LOC) and body dissatisfaction. CS can serve different functions such as replacing vomiting and/or binging or as an additional behavior to many eating disorders. CS and like behaviors has been found in several different eating disorders, making it difficult to find a treatment that works as a cure-all. There has been no defined treatment of CS as of now; however, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has been shown to reduce negative behaviors involved in eating disorders such as bulimia nervosa, anorexia nervosa and many others. A recent systematic review on the topic, revealed seven themes identified in scholarly articles. These themes include having potential markers of eating disorder severity (regardless of length of illness contributing to age discrimination. Individuals suffering from CS also showed increased Loss of Control (LOC), Pathological eating, negative emotions and feelings, and Body image distortion. CS sufferers may also be trans-diagnostic (i.e. appears in individuals who have been diagnosed with all or any type of clinical or sub-clinical eating disorder)
