ClinConnect Summary

The Bimbingamba Zerosix Third Phase trial is focused on helping young children, specifically those aged 0 to 7 years, and their families prevent obesity and promote healthier lifestyles. Childhood obesity is a growing concern, especially in developed countries, and it can lead to serious health problems later in life. This trial aims to create and test community-based programs designed to encourage healthier habits in children and improve their overall well-being.

To participate, children must be between 0 to 5 years old and live in the municipalities of Mondovì or Savigliano. The study will include around 2000 children, with about 1000 from each location. Families can expect to be involved in various community activities aimed at improving nutrition and physical activity. This is a great opportunity for families to contribute to important research that could make a significant difference in the fight against childhood obesity.
