Study Description

We are specifically planning app to create meal plans that are affordable, meet the recommended dietary allowances (RDAs) and adhere to sustainability guidelines to reduce the food-related carbon footprint. The app will enable participants to customize their weekly meal plans. We hypothesize that having the ability to customize the weekly menus through a FoodRx app will improve outcomes, as the lack of customization appeared to be a barrier for some families to improve their diet quality and achieve weight loss goals. (eg, some families did not like tofu or oatmeal, and would have preferred a substitute). We will be able to test the impact of the Food Rx app by comparing participants who use it to our control group that does not currently have access to the standard menus/grocery delivery or FoodRx app.
