Summary
This study tested whether a digital program could help adults with high blood pressure who have limited access to healthy food. 67 participants received a grocery delivery membership, personalized meal lists, dietary tracking, text message feedback, and health coaching over 4 months. The goal was to see if the program was practical and well-liked, and whether it improved diet and blood pressure.
