Overview

Cross-sectional study shows ARFID risk in undergraduate DPT students, highlighting prevalence in food interest and nutritional health.

Key Points

  • Undergraduate DPT students showed a low prevalence of ARFID, with 28% indicating potential disorder traits.
  • The most notable finding was a lack of interest in food, represented by 53.3% of participants at level 1.
  • The cross-sectional study included 377 participants, with a notable female majority at 72% compared to males at 27%.
  • The limited awareness of ARFID among students suggests a critical need for educational programs to improve nutritional health.
