About this trial

The goal of the study is to build a Register accruing data derived from the compilation of the questionnaire about LifeStyle for a population both of adults and of young boys and girls. The investigators are confident that in this way they will be able to expand the database they already have. The investigators will be able to increase the strength of the correlations between LS indices and health indicators. In particular, the investigators will emphasize the relationship between physical activity, stress, and diet quality on one hand, and on the other, they will focus on physiological parameters, like arterial pressure, gluco-lipid profile, and possible pathologies.
