Summary

This study tests whether providing money specifically for healthy foods helps pregnant women avoid gaining too much weight. About 1,440 women will either get standard nutrition advice or that plus up to $3,000 for healthy groceries. Researchers will compare weight gain between the two groups using birth records.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
money for healthy food
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that giving pregnant women funds for nutritious food helps prevent excessive weight gain and related health issues.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioral intervention, not a drug. Results depend on participants' choices and may not apply to all populations. The trial is still recruiting.
