OBJECTIVE
To assess the feasibility of a family meal intervention to address indicators of parent and adolescent nutrition and well-being and household food security.
METHODS
Nine adolescents and a parent/caregiver were recruited from a youth health clinic. Families were provided with meal plans, recipes, and ingredients for 5 meals weekly for 4 weeks. Participants completed baseline and follow-up surveys and open-ended interviews.
RESULTS
Overall, fidelity to the intervention was high among families; the frequency of family meals increased by approximately 2 meals/wk. Both parent/caregivers and adolescents reported improvements to nutrition (4 of 9 increased vegetable consumption for both) and most reported improvements to mental well-being. Household food insecurity also reduced during the intervention (means of 8.2 and 0.2 at baseline and follow-up, respectively).
CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS
Providing families with meal plans, recipes, and ingredients is an acceptable way to increase weekly frequency of family meals. Future research may consider the family meal as a way to engage with families about broader concerns.
目的
评估家庭膳食干预措施在解决父母和青少年营养及健康状况以及家庭粮食安全指标方面的可行性。
方法
从一家青年保健诊所招募了 9 名青少年及其家长/照顾者。为这些家庭提供了每周 5 餐、为期 4 周的膳食计划、食谱和食材。参与者完成了基线和随访调查以及开放式访谈。
结果
总体而言，家庭对干预措施的遵从度很高；家庭用餐频率每周增加了大约 2 餐。家长/照顾者和青少年均报告称营养状况有所改善（9 人中有 4 人增加了蔬菜摄入量），大多数人报告称心理健康状况有所改善。家庭粮食不安全状况也在干预期间得到改善（基线和随访时的平均值分别为 8.2 和 0.2）。
结论和意义
为家庭提供膳食计划、食谱和食材是一种可以增加每周家庭用餐频率的可接受方法。未来的研究可能会考虑将家庭用餐作为一种与家庭讨论更广泛问题的方式。
