Study Summary

The purpose of this descriptive study is to examine telomere length between two groups of people, those with and those without food addiction and identify possible relationships that may play a role in food addiction, it's behaviors and consequences. Research subjects would be adults age 19-70. They would be recruited from the Rural Nebraska Panhandle population. All COVID precautions will be enforced. Human subjects safety plans will be in place for this study.Eligibility: YaleFAS-2 Food Addiction Scale will be used to screen for presence or absence of food addiction. AT a later time, Eligible persons will be given the research consent form to read through and determine if they want to become a participant. If so, they will be consented. The participants will then be assigned an identification number to maintain confidentiality. Intervention: Participants will be given a Oragene saliva DNA collection kit to use and return to investigators. Evaluation:The Oragene saliva DNA collection kit will then be sent in for telomere length testing. Telomere Results will be correlated with food addiction diagnoses and behaviors to identify potential relationships. Follow up: Publication of results
