Videnskabelig vurdering
Overvejende falsk – Væsentlige dele af udsagnet er ikke understøttet af evidensen eller er stærkt overdrevne.
Evidensens sikkerhed: lav – Yderligere forskning vil sandsynligvis ændre vurderingen betydeligt.
1. Hvad blev der påstået?
Chicken causes nightmares, panic attacks, hallucinations and other psychiatric symptoms; mass chicken production explains a rise of panic attacks.
2. Hvad er påviseligt korrekt?
Gastrointestinal discomfort and late eating are associated with worse sleep and more nightmares in self-report surveys. Anxiety disorders have become more common: the Global Burden of Disease study found an increase in age-standardised prevalence of anxiety disorders between 1990 and 2023 (I-CHK-107), but it gives no evidence that chicken is a cause.
3. Hvad er forkert eller overdrevet?
No evidence links chicken specifically to nightmares, panic attacks or psychosis. In two surveys, people most often blamed dairy and sweets for disturbing dreams. Attributing a 20-year trend in panic attacks to chicken ignores many other factors (diagnosis, awareness, stress).
4. Hvad er stadig uklart?
Not applicable beyond the general lack of studies.
5. Hvilke studier understøtter det?
None found.
6. Hvilke studier modsiger det?
Indirect only: I-CHK-105 (3,362 Iranian adults: white meat intake not associated with anxiety, depression or distress); I-CHK-106 (meta-analysis: meat eaters had slightly lower anxiety and depression than meat abstainers); I-CHK-140 (WHO: anxiety disorders have social, psychological and biological causes, no food is named, and effective treatments exist); I-EGG-12, I-EGG-13 (foods blamed for dreams are mainly dairy and sweets).
7. Hvad gælder i Tyskland og Europa?
Not region-specific.
8. Hvad vides om Egypten?
Not region-specific.
9. Hvilken praktisk konklusion er passende?
Panikanfald, hallucinationer og vedvarende mareridt kræver lægelig eller psykologisk vurdering; at holde op med at spise kylling er ikke en evidensbaseret behandling.
Detaljer om vurderingen
- Begrundelse for evidensens sikkerhed
No study was found linking chicken consumption to nightmares, panic disorder or psychosis. Food-and-dream surveys point to dairy and sweets as the foods most often blamed (I-EGG-12, I-EGG-13), but neither survey reports chicken separately (only 'meat', 13-16% of the few food mentions for disturbing dreams) and neither measured panic attacks or hallucinations, so this evidence is very indirect. The universal wording is contradicted by everyday experience, and attributing a population trend to chicken production is an unsupported ecological inference. Rated like the comparable egg claim C-EGG-01; certainty low because the topic is little studied.
- Kildekvalitet
Own words in several machine transcripts, plus archive paraphrase; evidence consists of caller anecdotes.
- Regional overførbarhed
Universal claim.
- Individuelle undtagelser
Some people associate specific foods with poor sleep; food intolerance with gastrointestinal symptoms was associated with nightmares in a survey (I-EGG-13).

Hvad siger den samlede evidens?
Redaktionel vurdering på grundlag af studierne ovenfor – ikke selv et studieresultat.
Hvilken position er bedst underbygget?
There is no evidence that chicken causes nightmares, panic attacks or hallucinations; the limited indirect data show no association of poultry/meat with anxiety.
Hvorfor nogle studier vejer tungere
No study supports the claim. Indirect observational studies point in the opposite direction or show no association. The rise in anxiety disorders (I-CHK-107) is real but has many documented determinants and no data link it to chicken.
Er en årsagssammenhæng påvist? Ikke påvist No mechanism, no exposure-outcome study, ecological reasoning only.
Resterende usikkerhed
No study has directly measured chicken intake and panic attacks or hallucinations; individual food-symptom associations cannot be excluded.
Begrundet konklusion
The claim is unsupported and very likely false as a general statement; panic attacks and hallucinations need medical assessment.
Hvorfor ser studierne ud til at være uenige?
The premise that panic/anxiety became more common is partly correct (I-CHK-107: age-standardised anxiety prevalence increased 1990-2023), but this is a population trend with many possible causes and does not conflict with the null individual-level data.

Statistisk genberegning
- Conversion of Hedges g to approximate OR – Anxiety OR about 1.36 (1.06-1.75), depression about 1.48 (1.29-1.72) for abstainers vs consumers; small, opposite to the claim. genberegnet

New evidence is indirect (white meat and meat in general show no harmful association; WHO lists no dietary cause). A FALSE verdict would require direct evidence; certainty stays low. The safety note is preserved and sharpened.

På almindeligt sprog
Dr. Elawady sagde, at kylling forårsager mareridt, panikanfald og endda hallucinationer hos børn og voksne. Ingen forskning understøtter dette. I spørgeundersøgelser om mad og drømme gav folk for det meste mejeriprodukter og slik skylden, ikke kylling. Panikanfald og hallucinationer er reelle medicinske tilstande, som kan behandles, så de bør undersøges af en læge.

Systematically searched scoping review (protocol on OSF)
- Hvor mange mennesker, dyr eller prøver blev undersøgt?
525 of 13,141 articles
- Hvad blev der faktisk fundet?
525 articles: 212 cancer, 41 CVD, 52 CVD risk factors, 32 T2D, 33 T2D risk factors, 42 body weight, 181 other (incl. mental health). 366 observational, 64 experimental, 76 reviews. No RCT and only 1% of observational studies assessed processed poultry. 'A paucity of research exists to support poultry as health-promoting foods'.

Generel videnskabelig vurdering
Overvejende falsk Der er ingen evidens for, at kylling forårsager mareridt, panikanfald eller hallucinationer.
Følgende områder af fødevaresikkerheden er relevante for dette udsagn:
- Veterinærlægemidler og antibiotika
- Hormonelle vækstfremmere
- Forurenende stoffer (tungmetaller, PFAS, PCB, dioxiner, nitrat)
- Sygdomsfremkaldende mikroorganismer (Salmonella, Campylobacter m.fl.)
- Dyrehold og foder
- Kontrol, import, tilbagekaldelser, mærkning
