Mediating effect of food disgust between depression/anxiety and avoidant restrictive eating
The study emphasizes the relationship between food disgust on ARFID symptoms and anxiety in adults. Future research examining the connection between ARFID symptoms and anxiety in adults is essential for gaining deeper insight into the underlying mechanisms and for guiding the development of therapies that effectively target disgust-driven food aversions, and the importance of early emotional screening and individualized treatment to support nutritional rehabilitation.
