Filter by:Given the limited effectiveness of single food group-targeted interventions to enhance child nutrition, a key component of current and future health, innovative approaches are needed. Healthy dietary patterns are emerging as an important intervention target, and the Mediterranean Dietary pattern has been particularly effective at reducing cardiovascular disease risk factors, a leading cause of death in the US. Since parents are the gatekeepers of the home food environment and influence child intake through food-related parenting practices, children enjoy cooking with parents, and home food preparation is associated with more healthful dietary intake. Therefore, the investigators propose to develop and assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an online cooking intervention for parent-child dyads living in low-income households that promotes the Mediterranean dietary pattern and healthful food-related parenting practices.
It is already known that lifestyle is closely related to human health, disease formation, learning and work efficiency. Although there have been relevant researches on lifestyle, there is no research on the current situation of college students' lifestyle and its correlation with their studies; In addition, how to effectively and scientifically intervene unhealthy lifestyles and observe the sustainability of the intervention effect has not been reported. Therefore, this research takes the students in Zhejiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine as the research object to carry out a survey, understand the current situation of their lifestyle, analyze the influence of gender, major, grade and education on their lifestyle, and explore the correlation between lifestyle and academic performance; And then the targeted intervention is to be carried out against the unhealthy lifestyle factors in order to observe the intervention effect and its sustainability
The aim of this study is to evaluate how variations in maternal nutrition may affect twin pregnancy and in particular: - incidence of maternal obstetric complications: - gestational diabetes - gestational hypertension or preeclampsia - intrahepatic cholestasis (ICP) - fetal growth, development and birth weight of the babies
The purpose of this pilot study is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of brief lifestyle intervention modules designed to promote healthy eating, activity, and weight control for pregnant and postpartum clients receiving care as part of evidence-based home visiting.
Food prepared outside of the home tends to have a high energy content, and high levels of nutrients of concern (sodium, fat, saturated fat and sugar), especially when compared to home-cooked food. A number of studies suggest that when energy density of a food is manipulated it has a linear effect on energy intake, because consumers tend to eat a constant weight of food. However, recent observational research suggested that up to approximately 1.5-2kcal/g, individuals are relatively insensitive to changes in energy density, and there is no indication of compensation through altering meal size. However, upwards of approximately 1.5-2kcal/g, the authors proposed that individuals compensate for increases in energy density by selecting and consuming smaller meal sizes. The investigators aim to measure participant's consumption (in grams and kilocalories) of three meals at low, medium and high energy densities, and to measure later food intake to observe any evidence of later compensation in response to experimental condition
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of a digital (web and mobile-phone-based) program to improve lifestyle behaviors (physical activity, dietary intake) among Hispanic female cancer survivors and adult daughters.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a culturally tailored health promotion intervention for children with IDD and their families. First investigators will conduct a single group design pilot study of a health promotion intervention, followed by second, a small-scale randomized control trial (RCT). of the intervention with Latino parents of children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) in the Chicago, Illinois and Austin, Texas areas. The following research questions will be addressed: Question 1: What is the appropriate content, dosage, and delivery method of the intervention? Question 2: What is the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention? Question 3: Do participants improve between pre and post-test on outcome measures both in the one group design and compared to the control group in the RCT? Parents will receive 10 weekly remote sessions on health promotion content delivered by parent mentors called promotoras. Parents and children will attend 3 multi-family group workshops in-person that will provide demonstrations and interactive activities.
The purpose of this controlled feeding trial is to establish an Intervention Core, equipped to perform tightly controlled pharmacokinetic (PK) and dose-response (DR) feeding studies. This research is a two-component pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic cross-over dietary feeding trial. - In the PK study, eight foods will be tested, each on a single day, and the design is crossover. - In the DR, the effects of 10 foods will be compared to each other in a randomized, parallel-group design, and the dose-effect of each of the 10 foods will be determined in a randomized, crossover design.
The purpose of the study was to investigate the impact of aerobic exercise combined with diet protocol on the immune system in post-mastectomy patients receiving chemotherapy.
This study will develop and test and app that will create meal plans to improve diet quality and support weight loss. This app will allow participants to customize their meal plans and substitute recipes for nutritionally equivalent options that they find more appealing, thus potentially increasing adherence.
