All genders
Observational
The purpose of this research is to learn more about how the levels of different lipids affect kids with asthma and obesity. We're especially interested in how it affects kids with certain characteristics or types of asthma. In the long term, we hope this will help us understand if taking algae oil (high in certain types of lipids) might help some kids with asthma control their symptoms and reduce inflammation in their lungs.
