Study Summary
This is a two arm, randomized, 4 week study comparing 2 methods of dietary sugar reduction at Emory University and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. Participants will be non-diabetic children with NAFLD. Two groups of 6 participants will be followed for 4 weeks during the randomized controlled trial followed by a 20 week follow-up extension. One group will receive a guided grocery shopping (GGS) intervention for 4 weeks while the other group will be provided with a low free sugars (\<3% total daily) diet. The goal of this study is to determine if guided grocery shopping (GGS) over 4 weeks is equivalent to complete family diet provision in reducing free sugar intake to \<3% of total energy (TE) and if GGS will sustain the dietary change over 6 months.
Primary Outcome
The percent of calories from free sugars in the GGS group will be compared to the diet provision group. Participants will complete a dietary recall covering three 24-hour periods.
Interventions
- BEHAVIORAL Guided Grocery Shopping (GGS)
- OTHER Diet Provision Group
