Growing up in a violent environment is likely to lead to accelerated aging and disease risk, a new review of studies shows
Experiencing adversity early in life is likely to make children reach puberty more quickly, increase cellular aging and alter brain development.
That's according to a new meta-review of dozens of studies published in Psychological Bulletin, a journal of the American Psychological Association.And as the nation confronts a legacy of systemic racism and inequality, there is a need to empower pediatricians to recognize these adverse impacts early and help guide children's development earlier.
"Mindfulness training may help us be more aware of, and step away from, those well-worn habits that became ingrained when we were children due to our adverse experiences," Loucks said."We didn't have the power and wisdom then that we do now as adults to learn how to help reverse, or at least blunt, the effects of early life adversity."
