Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to examine the effect of the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Carrier state on the risk for dehydration and other CF-specific fluid-and-electrolyte disorders in male and female adults. The primary aim of the study is to estimate the risk of electrolyte disorders attributable to the CF carrier state in a genotyped cohort. This will be accomplished with two smaller projects- Aim 1 and Aim 2. Aim 1 will consist of 100 CF Carriers and 100 age- and sex-matched controls. Participants in this aim will be asked to complete a Participant Info and Temperature Survey consisting of questions about race, ethnicity, medical history, and how they experience heat. Aim 2 will consist of a subset of 25 CF Carriers and 25 age- and sex-matched controls from Aim 1. Participants in this aim will be scheduled for a visit to complete a heat challenge. At this visit, they will also complete the Participant Info and Temperature Survey. They will also sit in a sauna at 62 - 63 degrees Celsius for 45 minutes.
