Description

There is a multitude of research within the middle age and older adult population and their increased risk of cardiovascular disease that tends to increase with age. The purpose of this study is to find out how diet can affect the risk of developing cardiac disease in young adults specifically ages 18-25. This study was designed to compare the diets of young adults in the United States, specifically here on the University of Dayton's campus, to see how it affects risk factors for developing cardiac disease in the present as well as in the future.
