A group of researchers discovered a new perspective on cardiometabolic health trends and disparities.
According to a recent study which suggested that less than 7 per cent of the US adult population has good cardiometabolic health, a devastating health crisis requires urgent action.
A group of researchers from the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University discovered a new perspective on cardiometabolic health trends and disparities.
The findings of the study were published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
Researchers evaluated Americans across five components of health: levels of blood pressure, blood sugar, blood cholesterol, adiposity (overweight and obesity), and presence or absence of cardiovascular disease (heart attack, stroke, etc.).
