“…The principal themes that emerged were: the personal experience of the disorder; its effects on their relationships with family, peers, and care providers; and the question of what is visible through the body. All these themes resonate with the process of adolescence: the changing body escapes the teen's control, because of hormonal but also neurodevelopmental changes and modifies how he or she deals with emotions or with social situations [ 26 ]. The relational experience of the disorder takes its place within the adolescent process of separation-individuation described by P. Blos [ 27 ].…”

“…Previously proposed biological mechanisms to explain the association between FVI and CMDs revolve around the high content of fiber, nutrients (e.g., vitamin C), and phytochemicals (e.g., polyphenols, carotenoids) [36] found in vegetables and fruits, which are believed to have beneficial effects on neurotransmitter systems, neuronal plasticity [38], and gut health [39][40][41]. Although the aforementioned biological mechanisms appear plausible and are supported by studies in adults, the effects of FVI on CMDs may differ in youth due to the rapid brain development during adolescence [42]. Another potential explanation involves one of the existing theoretical models derived from life course epidemiology-i.e., the accumulation of risk model [43].…”
