The Yale School of Public Health reports that a study found a strong correlation between food insecurity and sleep patterns among Mexican adults.
Yale School of Public Health alumna Monica Jordan, M.P.H. ’14, led a study that found a strong correlation between food insecurity and sleep patterns among Mexican adults. The research, which was done as part of Jordan’s student thesis, was published recently in the Journal of Immigrant and Minority Health.
“I felt it would be a good addition to the literature,” said Jordan, who now works at the Heller School for Social Policy and Management at Brandeis University. “To our knowledge, it is the first study of food insecurity and sleep patterns in a sample of adults from a low- or middle-income country.”
