Healthy Living BEYOND Weight™ Study

The American Heart Association has launched a novel direct-to-participant longitudinal study. The Healthy Living BEYOND Weight Study will provide seminal data to define cardio-kidney-metabolic risk factors, address obesity and shape public health guidance.
BEYOND is an acronym, and you will see it used often when speaking about this program. It stands for: Bridging Evidence and Yielding Outcomes for Novel weight management therapies and Disease prevention.
The American Heart Association will draw on its decades of experience administering registries to develop and implement a longitudinal cohort study with a focus on the latest weight management therapies. Consented volunteers will be enrolled and followed to understand real-world experience and outcomes over time.
The American Heart Association has funded millions of dollars to support research into the origins and health consequences of excessive weight and the most effective methods to get people to a healthier weight. The Healthy Living BEYOND Weight Study will be a conduit for data generation and clinical research into the widespread issue of obesity.
