简要总结
This study is being done to see how produce delivery with or without nutritional education affects what people eat and if it can help improve diet and nutrition in low-income families and their ability to get enough healthy food. Research shows strong evidence regarding the role of diet in new cancer rates and cancer deaths. Although dietary guidelines have been established at the national level to improve diet quality, the average dietary quality remains low in American households, particularly in low-income communities. These disadvantaged communities are also more likely to be food insecure (having limited or uncertain access to nutritious food). FreshFix is a community-based organization that provides nutritious foods from local farmers to communities in Western New York and offers a Half-Price Produce delivery program which is targeted for lower-income and underserved communities. Participating in the FreshFix program with access to nutritional education materials may decrease food insecurity and improve diet quality in low-income families.
