Summary

This study tests a mobile app called FLAGs that gives parents personalized advice on feeding and lifestyle for their infants. Researchers will enroll 440 mothers with higher risk of childhood obesity. Half will use the app, half will get standard care. The goal is to see if the app improves growth and eating habits over 12 months.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Feeding, Lifestyle, Activity Goals (FLAGs) digital health application
What this could lead to
If it works, this app could help prevent childhood obesity by guiding parents on healthy feeding and lifestyle habits from infancy.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial testing feasibility and short-term outcomes. The app may not change long-term habits or weight, and results may not apply to all families.
