mHealth to Improve Diet Quality Among Early Adolescents in SNAP-Ed in Hawaii

Status unconfirmed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Diet, Healthy

In brief

The goal of this 8-week clinical trial is to learn whether the PortionSize Ed mobile app helps to improve healthy eating habits among early adolescents in the Hawai'i-Food and Lifeskills for Youth (HI-FLY) program. PortionSize Ed is a dietary assessment and nutrition education mobile app, that provides real-time feedback on adherence to tailored dietary recommendations. HI-FLY is a healthy lifestyle program delivered in schools throughout Hawaii. PortionSize Ed also contains educational videos. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to either the HI-FLY only group (HI-FLY), where they will receive the standard HI-FLY program or to the HI-FLY + PortionSize Ed app (HI-FLY + PSEd) group where they will receive the standard HI-FLY program and a study iPhone with the PortionSize Ed app for the 8-week study. This will allow us to evaluate the effect of the PortionSize Ed app among early adolescents in HI-FLY.
