Study Summary

This project will compare the preliminary efficacy of a novel school-delivered intervention, mindfulness plus health education intervention, to health education alone on dietary and physical activity habits in adolescents. This study has important public health implications because of the negative consequences of unhealthy diets and lack of exercise on health, such as obesity, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. If effective, this intervention has high potential for translation to high school settings

Primary Outcome

We will be able to recruit 80 adolescents (40 per condition) within the specified time frame, and no more than 20% will drop out of the study.
