Association between physical activity, socioeconomic status, blood biomarkers, and diet in lebanese adults
PA was positively associated with gender and disease risk, particularly LDL, a biomarker known to jeopardize cardiovascular health. Disease risk appears to be a driving factor in performing physical activity among women. These results may guide early nutrition interventions endorsing physical activity as a preventive measure to decrease the prevalence of cardio metabolic disorders.
