Summary

This study is testing a culturally modified version of the Group Lifestyle Balance program for Hispanic/Latino people who have had a stroke. The program focuses on healthy eating and physical activity to help participants lose weight and reduce their risk of type 2 diabetes. Researchers will enroll 24 adults who are at least one year past their first stroke and have a BMI of 25 or higher. The goal is to see if this adapted program leads to meaningful weight loss and better health outcomes.

What this could lead to

If successful, this program could offer an effective, culturally tailored way to help Hispanic/Latino stroke survivors lose weight and lower their risk of diabetes.

What could go wrong

This is a very small early study (24 people) with no control group, so results may not apply broadly. The program requires commitment to diet and exercise changes, which may be hard for some to maintain.
