Food insecurity is associated with muscle dysmorphia symptomatology among a sample of Canadian adolescents and young adults.
Body Image 2023 September 21
Prior research has documented the association between food insecurity and eating disorders, disordered eating behaviors, and body dissatisfaction. No known research has investigated whether food insecurity is associated with muscle dysmorphia symptomatology, which was the aim of this study. Data from 912 adolescents and young adults in Canada were analyzed. Linear regression analyses were used to determine the association between experiencing past year food insecurity and current muscle dysmorphia symptomatology. Among the sample, 15.7% reported experiencing any food insecurity. In regression analyses, food insecurity was significantly associated with greater overall muscle dysmorphia symptomatology and symptoms of Functional Impairment and Appearance Intolerance. Nearly one in five (18.5%) participants who reported food insecurity were at clinical risk for muscle-dysmorphia. Findings add to the growing literature on the adverse correlates of food insecurity and underscore the need for more research and intervention efforts to address the relationship between food insecurity and muscle dysmorphia symptomatology.
