Summary

This study tested a web app called Baby-Feed that helps parents track what their babies eat and how they grow. Researchers followed 155 families with infants aged 1-3 months for about 6 months. The app gives feedback on diet quality and weight gain to encourage healthier feeding habits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Baby-Feed web application (behavioural intervention)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could give parents a simple tool to help their babies eat better and gain weight at a healthy rate, potentially lowering the risk of childhood obesity.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with 155 participants. The app's benefits may not apply to all families, and long-term effects on obesity are not yet known.
