Adolescent Disordered Eating and Epigenetic Age Acceleration

Research output: Contribution to conferenceAbstractpeer-review

Abstract

Disordered eating is associated with a range of poor health outcomes that affect various body systems, including immune, metabolic,and stress-related processes. Biological ageing represents a potential mechanism through which disordered eating may impact these processes and can be measured through epigenetic age acceleration. Epigenetic age acceleration has been explored in various psychiatric disorders, but no study has investigated epigenetic age acceleration in those with eating disorders, or disordered eating.
