Research Highlights

Physical Activity & Diet Pilot

In 2014, CGB launched a pilot study targeting Physical Activity and Diet (PAD) in LFS families. This is a first step towards determining whether it is feasible and practical, to collect data of this kind from our study participants. The long-range goal of this effort is to determine whether there might be opportunities to attempt modification of these important lifestyle variables, with an eye towards reducing cancer risk and improving overall health and well-being in LFS families. A random sample of LFS study participants were invited to participate, by providing information about their daily diet and physical activity using a web-based data collection tool.
