A Correct answer
Explanation

Binge Eating Disorder (BED) is characterized by recurrent episodes of eating unusually large amounts of food in a discrete time period with a marked sense of loss of control. The key word is 'episodes' - BED occurs in binge episodes, not continuous grazing. Prader-Willi syndrome includes hyperphagia but is a genetic condition with intellectual disability. Night eating syndrome involves nocturnal eating patterns.
