Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Diet Quality of Household Food Purchases

    Time frame: 2 weeks

    Diet quality was quantified by applying the Healthy Eating Index-2015 (HEI-2015) scoring criteria (https://epi.grants.cancer.gov/hei/) to the nutrient and food group data of purchased foods and beverages. The HEI-2015 scores adherence to the Department of Health and Human Services' 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Adherence to recommended intakes for 13 key dietary components is scored on continuous scale for each component, and the 13 component scores are then summed to obtain a total score ranging from 0-100. Higher scores reflect closer adherence to the dietary guidelines.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Diet Quality of Dietary Intake

    Time frame: 2 weeks

    Diet quality was quantified by applying the Healthy Eating Index-2015 (HEI-2015) scoring criteria (https://epi.grants.cancer.gov/hei/) to the nutrient and food group data derived from three 24-hour diet recalls. The HEI-2015 scores adherence to the Department of Health and Human Services' 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Adherence to recommended intakes for 13 key dietary components is scored on continuous scale for each component, and the 13 component scores are then summed to obtain a total score ranging from 0-100. Higher scores reflect closer adherence to the dietary guidelines.

  2. Home Food Environment

    Time frame: 2 weeks

    Availability of obesity promoting foods in the home, assessed with an audit-based inventory. The audit captures the presence of 71 "obesity promoting" foods. The sum of these items ranges from 0-71, with higher scores reflecting greater availability in the home.

  3. Percentage of Total Energy Purchased From Non-store Sources (e.g., Fast Food and Take-out/Delivery, Restaurants)

    Time frame: 2 weeks

    Percentage of total energy (kcal) purchased from all sources other than food stores/supermarkets, including fast food and take-out/delivery, full-service restaurants, vending machines, bars/taverns, and cafeterias.

Other outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Systolic Blood Pressure at 12 Months

    Time frame: 12 months

    Change in systolic blood pressure

  2. Change From Baseline in Body Mass Index at 12 Months

    Time frame: 12 months

    Change in body mass index over 12 months of follow up
