简要总结
Healthy eating can be difficult for people who live in poor, geographically isolated regions of the United States. In particular, people who live in Appalachia often experience food insecurity (i.e., their access to adequate food is limited by a lack of money and other resources at times during the year) and lack of access to healthy foods. This pilot study evaluates the effectiveness of motivational interviewing in helping individuals who live in these austere regions improve their diets in the context of limited resources and healthy food availability
详细描述
Participants in three of the counties will receive an education/skills intervention paired with a form of coaching called motivational interviewing (MI) conducted by a trained registered nurse. Three similar counties that do not border any of the intervention counties are serving as controls (these counties receive the same nutrition education/skills intervention without motivational interviewing). All participants will receive cookbooks, cooking classes, food preparation tools, and prepared food dishes to take home to their families. The investigators will measure the impact of motivational interviewing on fresh fruit and vegetable consumption, saturated fat consumption and number of meals cooked at home.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in BLOCK Fruit/Vegetable/Fiber Screener From Baseline at 12 Months
时间窗: Baseline, 12 months
Block Fruit/Vegetable/Fiber Screener is a tool that ranks usual intake of fruit, vegetables, and fiber. Total fruit/vegetable/fiber score can range from 0-50 with higher numbers reflecting greater frequency of fruit, vegetable and fiber consumption.
次要结局
