Summary

This trial tests whether the Eat, Move, Live (EML) program can help Latina mothers of elementary school children adopt healthier habits, such as eating more fruits and vegetables and increasing physical activity. The goal is to see if these changes can reduce markers of chronic disease risk, like blood sugar and weight. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive the EML program or standard information, and their progress will be tracked over time.

What this could lead to
If successful, this program could offer a practical, community-based way to reduce cancer and chronic disease risk in underserved populations.
What could go wrong
