Diet patterns and heart health study
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how different diets (vegan, carnivore, or mixed) affect cholesterol and heart health. If you've been following one of these diets for at least 6 months, you might be able to help researchers learn more.
