Food as medicine: can a 'Produce Prescription' help control weight?

NCT ID NCT06751563

Summary

This small, completed study tested two practical ways to help adults with overweight or obesity who find it hard to afford healthy food. For 8 weeks, 48 participants either received vouchers to buy fresh produce or had boxes of their preferred fruits and vegetables delivered to their homes. Researchers wanted to see which method people stuck with better and if it led to eating more produce or changes in weight.
