Summer jobs fight teen obesity in new study
NCT ID NCT07227220
Summary
This small, early study tested whether a 6-week summer youth employment program could help prevent obesity in teenagers. Researchers followed 15 teens to see if working over the summer helped them maintain a healthier weight and improve habits like physical activity, sleep, and diet. The goal was to see if this common program shows enough promise to be tested in a larger, more definitive trial.
