The Adverse Childhood Experiences study highlighted the lasting impact of childhood trauma on health. Adults with a higher Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) score were found to have more than 45 chronic conditions including autoimmune diseases and type 2 diabetes. These effects may manifest between ages 40 to 65, indicating the long-term consequences of trauma. Some individuals may be more stress resilient, while those with higher ACE scores are more vulnerable to health implications like blood sugar imbalances.
