In this study we want to find out how much alcohol people drink every day affects if someone gets sick more easily. We want to see if this is different in people who drink different amounts or those who have a problem with alcohol.
At the baseline visit, you will meet with a member of the study team to fill out surveys and collect body composition measures (dual x-ray absorptiometry scan). If you drink alcohol, you will wear an alcohol monitor during your daily life for 2 weeks. All participants will complete two brief surveys each day for 2 weeks. The study also involves a single blood draw.
Up to $65. , Body composition data from the DEXA scan
