Ever wondered what a Pennington Generation study visit looks like? π
Families who join the study complete a few simple health checks like height, weight, waist measurements, and quick strength tests for older kids. After that, families check in once a year.
Itβs a small commitment that helps researchers learn how to build healthier futures for generations. π
