Resumen
La presente investigación fue desarrollada entre los meses de Enero y Junio del 2010 en el municipio Vertientes de Camagüey. Tuvo como objetivo general evaluar los efectos de una fórmula compuesta por Remedios Florales de Bach (BFRs), sobre el control de las ansias relacionadas con la comida y su supresión en individuos con sobrepeso. El enfoque de investigación fue cuantitativo, siendo un estudio explicativo, con un diseño experimental de series cronológicas múltiples.
La muestra quedó conformada por 48 participantes con sobrepreso, con una media de edad de 36 (DE=11) años. Luego de la evaluación inicial (LB) fueron asignados aleatoriamente a dos grupos de 24 participantes cada uno: BFRs e Intención (In). La investigación se estructuró en tres etapas fundamentales correspondientes LB y seguimientos durante uno y tres meses respectivamente.
Los principales resultados sugieren que los BFRs tuvieron un mayor efecto que la intención sobre: la supresión de pensamientos relacionados con la comida, el peso y la forma del cuerpo; la mayoría de los factores que conforman las ansias como rasgo, con la excepción de la sensación de hambre y las intenciones de comer; los pensamientos intrusos en general y la reducción de la utilización del castigo como estrategia de control de pensamientos. Además ambas estrategias mostraron resultados positivos y sostenidos a través del tiempo para la anticipación de refuerzo positivos, los desencadenantes de las ansias de comer, la sensación de hambre, las intenciones de comer y la reevaluación como estrategia de control de pensamientos
