Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The rise in childhood overweightness and concomitant increase in chronic disease risk warrants exploration into the effectiveness of interventions targeting the eating and activity habits of overweight youth. This research study developed and tested a "Beverage Choice and Lifestyle Modification" (BCLM) intervention for 4 to 8 year old children who are at-risk for being overweight or are overweight and who consume large amounts of sugar sweetened beverages and juice. The overall study objectives were to test the acceptability and effectiveness of the BCLM intervention for improving the weight status, energy (kcal) intake, beverage selections and beverage preferences of children in targeted age and BMI group. The investigators hypothesized that those children randomized to the BCLM group will show greater improvements in weight and Body Mass Index (BMI) status, beverage choices,and energy intake than those assigned to our Nutrition Education (NE) group.
