Clinical Trial Summary

To evaluate a scalable population health strategy to 1) screen, 2) identify, and 3) intervene with individuals at high risk of CKD progression to ESRD that could be implemented in other high risk communities and health care systems. This novel study will evaluate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of providing F&V to individuals identified at high risk study for CKD and ESRD through community health screenings. Further, it will evaluate whether providing education as to how to prepare F&V for consumption, the latter being done for all F&V recipients in PI's preliminary published studies but its efficacy was not specifically tested, increases F&V intake and thereby reduces CKD progression risk as well as related clinical outcomes.

Description:

"Fruits and Veggies for Health" is a prospective, randomized two group study to evaluate a community-engaged screening, identification, and F&V intervention to improve CKD outcomes in 140 AA adults (greater than 18 years). Participants will be randomized to a 1) F&V only (F&V Only), or 2) F&V plus a nutrition/cooking program (F&V + Cook).
