Association between food insecurity and migraine among US young adults
JAMA Sep 18, 2019
Nagata JM, et al. - Researchers ascertained the relationship between food insecurity and migraine in a nationally representative sample of US young adults. Food insecurity, defined as limited or intermittent access to nutritionally sufficient and safe foods, accessed in socially acceptable ways, is correlated with various adverse physical and mental health outcomes. According to the researchers, one in six individuals are affected by migraine, which is inversely correlated with household income; nevertheless, less is known about the correlation between food insecurity and migraine, especially in the United States and among young adults. Young adulthood denotes a significant period different from adolescence and older adulthood, when economic and educational transitions may raise the risk for food insecurity.
