Food delivery plus counseling may help rural smokers kick the habit
NCT ID NCT05429892
First seen Jul 01, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether combining home food delivery with video-based smoking cessation counseling helps rural smokers quit more than counseling or food delivery alone. Participants are adults aged 21-75 who smoke regularly and live in certain Arkansas counties. The goal is to see if addressing food insecurity alongside smoking support improves quit rates.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
smoking cessation counseling and food delivery
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could offer a practical, home-based strategy to help rural smokers quit, potentially reducing tobacco-related health burdens.
What could go wrong
The trial is relatively small and focused on specific rural counties, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is behavioral, and quitting smoking is difficult even with support.
