Obsessive healthy eating and its extreme form orthorexia nervosa are epidemiologically significant problems. Mindfulness, the focused, non-judgmental attention to and awareness of present events, may be an important psychological contributor to (orthorexic) eating habits.
In this cross-sectional survey-based study, 314 women and 75 men (mean age = 27.17 years, SD = 10.64) provided data on mindfulness (Freiburg Mindfulness Inventory, presence and acceptance subscale) and orthorexic eating (Teruel Orthorexia Scale, healthy orthorexia and orthorexia nervosa subscale).
In this study, we found a positive relation between mindfulness and healthy orthorexia, the non-pathological interest in eating healthy. By contrast, orthorexia nervosa, the pathological obsession with healthy eating, was negatively associated with mindfulness. Gender differences appeared neglectable.
Taken together, these results confirm previous research showing that mindfulness encourages eating healthy and may protect against eating-related pathologies. Result also support the notion that orthorexia has two dimensions, healthy and nervosa, which are differently related to psychological factors, herein mindfulness.

强迫性健康饮食及其极端形式的神经性正食症是具有流行病学意义的问题。正念，即对当下事件的专注、无评判的关注和觉察，可能是（正食症）饮食习惯的一个重要心理因素。
在这项基于横断面调查的研究中，314名女性和75名男性（平均年龄 = 27.17岁，标准差 = 10.64）提供了关于正念（弗莱堡正念量表，存在与接纳子量表）和正食症饮食（特鲁埃尔正食症量表，健康正食症和神经性正食症子量表）的数据。
在本研究中，我们发现正念与健康正食症（对健康饮食的非病理性兴趣）之间存在正相关。相比之下，神经性正食症（对健康饮食的病理性痴迷）与正念呈负相关。性别差异似乎可以忽略不计。
综上所述，这些结果证实了先前的研究，表明正念鼓励健康饮食，并可能预防与饮食相关的疾病。研究结果还支持了正食症有两个维度，即健康维度和神经性维度，它们与心理因素（在此为正念）的关系不同的观点。
