Investigators propose to measure metabolites on this expanded cohort with serum sampled before and after 6-month intervention with calorie restricted Mediterranean diet to: 1) determine the effects of a technology assisted calorie restricted diet on metabolic risk and lung function; 2) determine differences between usual care and intervention group using genomics and metabolomics that may be targetable markers for further evaluation; 3) quantify the metabolome and evaluate pre/post changes in BMI, FEV1, FeNo, vascular stiffness, and overall quality of life; and 4) explore dietary modification as treatment of WTC-LI. The biomarker profile of the cohort control will be useful for discovering biomarker associations with other disease manifestations such as: bronchial wall thickening on CT, obstruction on FEV1 /FVC ratio, bronchodilator response, methacholine reactivity, and other definitions of loss of FEV 1 . This cohort control will be an asset to future studies.
