Summary

This study tested whether community health workers (trained members of the community) can help people with type 2 diabetes and food insecurity use a program that provides free fruits and vegetables. 104 Hispanic adults on Medicaid in Connecticut took part. The goal was to see if personalized support increases how much people use the produce program.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
community health worker support and free produce program
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could make it easier for people with diabetes and limited resources to eat more fruits and vegetables, potentially improving blood sugar control.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with 104 people, so results may not apply to everyone. The program's success depends on local resources and individual participation.
