Cooking for Health

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

In brief

Type 2 diabetes is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among American Indians (AIs) in the United States. Although healthy diet is a key component of diabetes management programs, many AIs face barriers to adopting a healthy diet including: difficulty budgeting for food on low-incomes, low literacy and numeracy when purchasing food, and limited cooking skills. The proposed project will evaluate a culturally-targeted healthy foods budgeting, purchasing, and cooking skills intervention aimed at improving the cardio-metabolic health of AIs with type 2 diabetes who live in rural areas.
