Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) can be a severe and debilitating eating disorder, where individuals limit food intake for reasons unrelated to the weight and body image concerns observed in anorexia nervosa. Although genetics is known to play a significant role in other eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa, only one study has investigated the genetic background of ARFID, and this was limited to those with ARFID within an autism cohort. This narrative review describes current knowledge about the clinical characteristics of ARFID and highlights current knowledge gaps, setting the scene for a discussion of how existing research findings about the genetics of related conditions might help guide genetic research about ARFID. A large genome-wide association study (GWAS) is recommended as the first step to addressing some of the fundamental biological questions around ARFID and will lay the framework for development of interventions and treatments that target ARFID at a biological level.
