Summary

This study looks at whether whole or low-fat (1%) milk is better for preventing obesity in toddlers. Researchers will give 625 children either whole or low-fat milk for one year and measure changes in waist size and body mass index. The goal is to find out which milk type supports healthy growth without leading to excess weight gain.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: Parents of children: 1) willing to be randomized to provide either only whole or 1% milk to their child for 1 year, 2) access to a smart phone and a tablet, laptop or computer with internet and email at home, 3) ability to speak and read English or Spanish for the purposes of receiving study communications and completing surveys and dietary assessments (to avoid needing to translate all study materials and have research staff fluent in other languages due to budget limits), 4) not planning to move outside of the San Francisco Bay Area or discontinue being child's primary caregiver for the next year (e.g., foster care, parent separation). Exclusion Criteria: Children: 1) \<23 months or \>48 months old at recruitment; 2) condition or medication that affects growth or daily feeding, or cardiometabolic health such as hypopituitarism, growth hormone deficiency, inborn error of metabolism, syndromic obesity, familial hypercholesterolemia, 3) weight-for-length or height below the 2nd percentile, 4) lactose intolerance, milk allergy or other dietary restrictions (e.g., vegan) that impact ability to consume dairy or otherwise limit dietary intake, 5) resides in more than one household (e.g., shared care by separated parents), and 6) not covered by public or private medical insurance (may reduce well-child doctor visits). If two eligible children are in a household, one will be randomly selected to participate.
