• MetCardio_DBC human observational study explores the impact of vegetarian-vegan versus omnivorous dietary patterns and physical activity habits in body composition, skin health and metabolic markers to establish the correlations between these parameters with metabolic health and cardiovascular risk. The following parameters are under investigation:
  
  The eating behaviors and physical activity habits of participants using validated questionnaires;
  Body composition by Bioimpedance and Dual radiation X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA);
  Cutaneous physiology by means of carotenoids tests, Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL), superficial and deep Epidermal hydration, skin biomechanics characters and skin microcirculation;
  Biochemical parameters, blood pressure, and microcirculation parameters using the LINX DUG Multi-analyzer, validated semi-automatic oscillometer and Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography (MSOT) imaging, respectively;
  Cardiovascular risk using QRISK®3-2018.
