I. The dietary intake and cardiometabolic risk of children varies in ethical/racial groups. Since the specific nutrients of the children’s cardiovascular risks were not well understood. Carbohydrates, saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fat were monitored and assessed as a factors that would help determine and understand the influence diet may have at a young age, especially with children who stuff in cardiometabolic health. Racial and ethnic factors were studied in this experiment because diet and health varies in different races, and may play a huge part in the study. Risk factors like obesity, dyslipidemia, and fat intake are looked at to see the relationship to cardiovascular disease. The hypothesis trying to be stated is, dietary saturated fat and carbohydrate intake will have damaging effects on triglyceride and LDL cholesterol levels, unlike…show more content… The purpose of the study is to determine the influence of dietary recommendations at a young age among different racial/ethnic groups on cardiometabolic health. The background information present on the problem is the effect of specific nutrients on cardiovascular risk patients who are children. Because this case is not a well understood case, doctors tried to assess four dietary factors (carbohydrates, saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fat intake), z-scores of their fasting carbohydrate, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, triglyceride, C-reactive protein (CRP), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels, and body mass index. Racial/ethnic groups were studied to see if there would be a difference in factors like diet and health. It was learned that forty-seven percent of children had at least one suboptimal cardiometabolic risk factor. The assessment was a cross-sectional sample of racially diverse fourth through eighth grade students, done by Block Kids 2004 Food Frequency Questionnaire. This was held in a Boston-area school district between January and April
