Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective is to assess pre- and post-intervention nutrition education knowledge and preference. The secondary objective is to assess pre- and post-intervention fruit and vegetable consumption via a plate waste study.


Clinical Trial Description

Background: The prevalence of overweight and obese children in the United States is at epidemic proportions, making it a recognized public health priority. Overweight and obese children are more likely to remain overweight and obese as adults, which increases their risk for developing obesity-related diseases and psychological disorders. Research shows that regular consumption of fruit and vegetables (F/V) may reduce the risk of obesity and obesity-related diseases yet most American school children fail to meet recommended intakes .

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine if a F/V-targeted nutrition education intervention would increase F/V preference, knowledge, and consumption among elementary-school students.

Methods: Eight 20-minute nutrition lessons, focusing on F/V consumption, were administered over an eight-week period to 3rd and 5th grade students (N=150) at a local Ellensburg School District elementary school . Pre/post surveys were used to examine F/V knowledge and preference. Researchers observed and photographed students' lunches for 5-consecutive days pre- and post- intervention to assess possible change in consumption patterns.

Results: Data is currently under analysis. Conclusions: To be determined June 2017. ;
