Summary

This study tests a program called LIGHTER-MetS that combines health coaching with an AI-powered app to help people with metabolic syndrome eat better and lower their heart risk. About 316 adults aged 21-65 with metabolic syndrome will join. They will work with a health coach for 3 months and use the eTRIP© app to track meals and activity. The goal is to see if this approach improves self-regulation of eating and reduces cardiovascular risk.

Active substance

LIGHTER-MetS program (health coaching plus eTRIP© app)

What this could lead to

If successful, this program could offer an effective, scalable way for people with metabolic syndrome to improve their eating habits and lower their heart disease risk.

What could go wrong

This is a relatively small, early-stage study (316 participants) testing a behavioral intervention, so results may not apply broadly. Success depends on participants consistently using the app and coaching.
