This study assessed the 8-week nutrition and physical activity program "Food and Fun," adapted for low-income Spanish-speaking mothers and their children. Fruit/vegetable consumption, physical activity, and other characteristics were measured at baseline and at the end of the program. The final sample consisted of 7 mothers and 13 children. Among mothers, there was a significant increase in vigorous physical activity (p =.045). Among children, there was a significant increase in fruit and vegetable consumption (p =.05) and in physical activity (p =.02). This program may be effective in promoting healthy nutrition and physical activity among low-income Latinas and their children.
本研究评估了一项为期8周的“食物与乐趣”营养与体育活动项目，该项目是为低收入的讲西班牙语的母亲及其子女量身定制的。在基线期和项目结束时测量了水果/蔬菜摄入量、体育活动及其他特征。最终样本包括7名母亲和13名儿童。在母亲中，剧烈体育活动有显著增加（p = 0.045）。在儿童中，水果和蔬菜摄入量（p = 0.05）和体育活动（p = 0.02）有显著增加。该项目可能在促进低收入拉丁裔女性及其子女的健康营养和体育活动方面有效。
