“…Some case reports described a co‐occurrence of EDS and eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa (AN) [Al‐Mufty and Bevan, ; Miles et al, ], although the type of EDS was not specified in the reports. Goh et al [] hypothesized that since there is symptom overlap seen AN and JH such as gastrointestinal symptoms, orthostatic intolerance, and fatigue associated syndromes, JH is a possible indicator of a familial disorder of connective tissue elasticity which potentially plays a causal role in the development of the eating disorder.…”

“…It has been proposed by Bulbena et al (2017) that collagen laxity and histologic abnormalities contribute to the somatic complaints and the psychopathology noted in EDS. Joint hypermobility does indeed seem to be more prevalent in patients with AN (63% of participants) and their relatives (34%) than controls (13%) (Goh et al, 2013), further suggesting a potential relationship between connective tissue disease and AN.…”

“…Studies have shown an increased prevalence of anxiety disorders in clinical and nonclinical samples with hypermobile joints, as well as an unusually high presence of joint hypermobility in patients with panic disorder (Bulbena et al, ; Bulbena, Pailhez, Bulbena‐Cabre, Mallorqui‐Bague, & Baeza‐Velasco, ). Preliminary data show that joint hypermobility may also be overrepresented in patients with AN (Goh, Olver, Huang, Millard, & O'Callaghan, ); whether this reflects an increased prevalence of actual EDS is unknown.…”
