Thanks so much for sharing this Angela. I hadn't know about the food insecurity link and ACEs although it makes perfect sense.
There is also a large body of research finding that prenatal stress, including lack of food / starvation is a risk factor for symptoms of metabolic syndrome / insulin resistance later in a baby's life, including type 2 diabetes. These effects continue for at least another generation (grandchildren) in humans and animals.
This sounds like the research on effects of adversity in prenatal and perinatal periods is consistent with finds in childhood.
