Summary

This study tests a 9-session group program for parents of children aged 6 months to 3 years, focusing on healthy eating, physical activity, and sleep. About 526 families from Spain will take part, with half receiving the program and half getting usual care. The goal is to see if the program helps children maintain a healthy weight over 18 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Bambú program (behavioral intervention: group-based parenting sessions on nutrition, physical activity, and sleep)
What this could lead to: If successful, this program could provide an effective, scalable way to prevent childhood obesity in vulnerable families, reducing long-term health risks.
What could go wrong: This is a relatively early-stage trial with 526 participants, and results may not apply to all populations. The program requires significant commitment from families, and participation may be low.
