Background/Objectives: The evaluation of metabolic and physiological health indicators in people with Down syndrome (DS) is crucial, since these are more prone to problems. However, there limited scientific evidence regarding the status literacy (HL) adults DS their legal guardians. This study aimed assess determine HL levels Methods: Eighteen (11 females, 7 males) aged 28.64 ± 9.01 years were tested for status, guardians completed survey. Gender differences all variables checked by t-tests independent samples Cohen’s D effect sizes (ESs). Differences between parents low adequate calculated via receiver operating characteristic curves. Results: Males overweight, whereas females obese (mean BMI = 26.51 30.10 males respectively). Females had higher high-density lipoprotein concentrations (large ES), hematocrit hemoglobin ES). Hematological parameters most significant that differed (AUC 0.79–0.87). Conclusions: These findings suggest absence severe comorbidities, may achieve stable profiles, particularly when supported structured physical activity informed caregiving. influence parental on points potential parent-targeted education improve outcomes promote autonomy individuals through decision-making. Thus, our highlight need greater investment caregiver systemic support optimize DS. Future research should explore interventions at improving examine extent which efforts translate into improved
