Though previous studies have shown that Latinos have a higher life expectancy than most other Americans, a new study suggests that might soon change for newer generations of Latino-Americans.
The National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute released initial results of its largest Latino health study on Monday. The groundbreaking study is said to be the most in-depth report yet, following 16,000 Latinos aged 18 to 74 since 2008. Studies were done in Chicago, the Bronx, New York, Miami and San Diegodocumenting chronic disease and risk factors.
