“…Another study found the association regarding subjective (but not objective) binge eating, and in addition, this relationship was not moderated by distress tolerance [ 55 ]. One study found internalized cisgenderism predicted higher levels of disordered eating [ 58 ]. Sexual orientation concealment was associated with disordered eating [ 48 , 54 ], higher odds of eating pathology [ 52 ] and overeating [ 43 ].…”

Purpose Sexual and gender minorities (SGMs) show a heightened risk of disordered eating compared to heterosexual and cisgender people, a disparity which may be caused by exposure to minority-specific stressors, such as discrimination and violence. This systematic review aims to summarize available evidence on the role of minority stress in disordered eating and SGM-specific aspects. Methods Following PRISMA guidelines, scientific search engines (EBSCO, PUBMED, Web of Science) were screened up to 31st of January 2024, including English-language original research papers containing analyses of the relationship between minority stress and disordered eating. 2416 records were gathered for screening. After application of inclusion and exclusion criteria, thematic analysis was conducted regarding 4 research questions: effects of minority stress on disordered eating, mediating factors, specificities of SGMs and differences between identity categories. Results 30 studies were included. Several aspects of minority stress are reliably associated with different forms of disordered eating. The relationship between minority stressors and disordered eating is mediated by aspects such as shame, body shame, or negative affect. SGMs show several specificities, such as the presence of a role of LGBTQIA + communities and additional gender-related pressures. Bisexual people and gender minorities appear to feature comparatively higher risks, and gender-related factors shape paths leading to disordered eating risk. Conclusion Minority stress is an important predictor of disordered eating, making SGM people’s health particularly at risk. Institutional and organizational anti-discrimination policies are needed, as well as further research. Clinical interventions may benefit from exploring and incorporating how minority stressors impact SGM people. Evidence level I—Systematic review.

“…Indonesian culture has diverse views on beauty and body idealization that can influence how adolescents see themselves. In addition, physiological, cognitive and sociocultural factors regarding ideal body size can also influence body image perceptions ( 26 , 27 ). Adolescents may feel pressure to achieve body standards that are considered ideal by society, sometimes in unhealthy ways such as excessive dieting ( 28 ).…”

“…In addition, family, peers and social media contribute to body shape or size dissatisfaction ( 30 ). Perceived body image and nutritional status have a strong relationship in a person’s physical and psychological health ( 27 , 31 ). Body image refers to the way individuals see and feel about their physical appearance, while nutritional status reflects body health based on nutrient intake and weight.…”

BackgroundAdolescent growth and development is a period of very specific nutritional problems. As a result of poor growth and development, 36.3% of adolescents in Indonesia are at risk of developing CED. The purpose of this study was to determine the description of body image, the incidence of Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED), and nutritional intake in adolescents in urban and rural areas.MethodsThis study used a descriptive quantitative design with a cross-sectional study conducted in Bandung and Sumedang on 387 adolescents aged 13–15 years. The instruments used in this study were body image questionnaire Figure Rating Scale (FRS) method, 2 × 24-h food recall, and anthropometry for Measuring mid upper arm circumference (MUAC).ResultsResults of this study showed that more than half of adolescents in urban (54.0%) and rural areas (61.7%) were at risk of CED, had negative body image perceptions in urban (69.1%) and rural areas (62.3%), and underconsumption of macronutrients in both urban and rural adolescents.ConclusionMost adolescents in urban and rural areas still consume less energy, carbohydrates, and protein. Perceived body image and nutrient intake contribute to the incidence of CED in adolescents.

“…Body shame, resulting from societal stigmatization and internalized transphobia, leads to negative self-perception and dissatisfaction with one's physical appearance ( Brewster et al., 2019 ). Body surveillance, driven by the need to conform to gender norms, intensifies self-monitoring of body image, often resulting in heightened anxiety and stress ( Brewster et al., 2019 ; Hong et al., 2023 ). These factors contribute to body weight dissatisfaction, leading to negative psychological outcomes and eating concerns in transgender individuals.…”
