First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding hands-on cooking classes to a standard weight loss program helps young adults (ages 18-35) with mild-to-moderate intellectual disabilities lose more weight and maintain that loss over 24 months. Participants will be split into two groups: one gets the cooking program plus standard support, the other gets standard support alone. Researchers will track weight, body fat, health markers like blood pressure and cholesterol, and daily living skills.
