ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is exploring how grocery delivery services can help low-income pregnant young women manage their weight and improve their diet. The researchers want to see if providing easy access to healthy food can lead to better nutrition and healthier weight gain during pregnancy. The results from this study could help support other young pregnant women in the future.
To participate in this trial, you need to be a woman who is less than 20 weeks pregnant with a healthy single baby, able to receive text messages, and currently drinking sugary beverages. Unfortunately, if you live with someone else who is also participating or have certain health conditions, you won't be eligible. If you decide to join the study, you can expect to receive grocery deliveries and be part of a team that is dedicated to improving the health of pregnant women like you. This is a great opportunity to contribute to research that could make a difference in your community!
