Related to risk factors; had a medium risk family history with 82,1% (n = 78), alimentation with 81.1% (n = 77) and physical activity with 62.1% (n = 59). Of the 11 altered preprandial capillary blood samples, 9.5% (n = 9) had a mean risk in the family history and 10.5% (n = 10) with physical activity.
