Summary

This pilot study tested a program called THRIVE in 80 Black adults with high blood pressure. Participants received personalized dietitian coaching, culturally tailored messages, free produce from a mobile market, and help connecting to social services. The goal was to see if this approach could improve their diet and was practical to run. The study compared this group to another that only got standard produce bags and social service links.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
dietitian coaching, produce prescription, and social service referrals
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could offer a practical, community-based way to help Black adults with high blood pressure eat healthier and better manage their condition.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study (80 people) testing feasibility, not effectiveness. Results may not apply to other groups or settings, and the intervention requires ongoing effort and resources.
