United States68 participantsStarted 2025-05-20

Plain-language summary

This study aims to compare the 8-week virtual Healthy YOU Program with a standard care intervention that sends weekly nutrition and healthy living tips via email. It will evaluate short- and long-term changes in health behaviors, such as diet, physical activity, biomarkers, and body composition. The study also seeks to identify factors that help participants make lasting health changes and explore how lifestyle interventions can improve overall health. Findings may guide future programs and support non-weight-focused approaches to chronic disease management and healthcare policy.
