We are studying how people's daily physical activity and alcohol use behaviors are related to their risk for obesity and inflammation. We are collecting this information to learn more about disease risk and to inform future research studies and interventions.
At the baseline visit, you will meet with a member of the study team to complete the consent process, fill out surveys, and collect height, weight, and body composition measures. You will repeat those measures at the follow-up visit and do a blood draw of ~14 mL of blood. You will also wear an activity monitor during your daily life for 3 weeks and complete two brief (~3 minute) surveys each day for 3 weeks.
