Nutrition and air quality study for Port Wentworth and Savannah residents
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether a healthy diet, provided through grocery delivery, can help reduce lung irritation caused by air pollution. It involves home visits and monitoring to see if nutrition helps protect your airways.
