Long-term Skeletal Consequences of Anorexia Nervosa: A “Wake up Call”
Journal of Adolescent HealthVol. 64Issue 3p283–285Published in issue: March, 2019- Amy D. DiVasta
- Catherine M. Gordon
Cited in Scopus: 1Bone health in the setting of nutritional deficiency from anorexia nervosa (AN) has been intensely studied over the past two decades. Unfortunately, the peak incidence of eating disorders and time for acquisition of peak bone mass coincide during adolescence. Given that over one-half of the adult skeleton is accrued during this developmental period [1], there is understandable concern that AN threatens genetic peak bone mass attainment and causes lasting skeletal deficits into adulthood. The mechanisms behind AN's impact on the skeleton are multifactorial. - Editorial

Observational studies provide support for an association between an individual's vitamin D status and immune function, cancer, pain, asthma, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, leading many to suggest oral vitamin D supplementation for preventive and/or therapeutic benefit for these disorders [1–3].
