Summary

This study looks at how body composition (fat vs. muscle) affects blood vessel health in women with a normal BMI. Researchers will measure how blood vessels respond to a high-fat meal and a stress task. The goal is to understand why some normal-weight people may still have heart disease risk. No treatment is given; this is an observational study.
