Mealtime irregularity is associated with GDF-15 in humans (1161.4 vs 1028.0 pg/mL, p = 0.009; β = 0.053, 95% CI 0.0078-0.0977).
“Participants with irregular mealtimes were significantly younger than those with regular mealtimes (mean ± standard deviation: 73.3 ± 4.6 vs. 75.1 ± 5.6 years, p = 0.014) and had higher serum GDF-15 levels”
