Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will pilot test the use of two mHealth devices. One is called the Bite Counter and one is called a MisFit. The study will be among a sample of participants (n = 50) to monitor their eating and sleeping habits. The Bite Counter is a wearable watch-like device that detects and records when an individual has taken a bite of food. The benefit of using the Bite Counter is that it places a low-burden on participants to self-monitor their dietary intake. The MisFit is a commercial device that tracks an individual's sleeping and activity. The purpose of this study is to (1) find out how the Bite Counter calculates daily bites taken on a vegan diet compared to an omnivorous diet, (2) examine differences in sleep and activity between individuals following a vegan diet compared to an omnivorous diet and (3) get feedback from users before the device is tested in larger studies.
