The Healthy Eating for Successful Living in Older Adults™ (HESL) is a six-week community nutrition and lifestyle education program designed specifically for the elderly (>60 years), to promote dietary and behavioral changes towards a healthy lifestyle. The intervention was evaluated using a randomized-controlled trial.
The elderly are at a higher risk of various chronic diseases. The burden of various chronic diseases such as heart disease and osteoporosis can be reduced with change in dietary and other lifestyle behaviors. The Healthy Eating for Successful Living in Older Adults™ (HESL) provides elderly with needed knowledge on healthy food choices and lifestyle behaviors, and tools that support behavioral changes. The investigators aimed to evaluate this intervention program by determining, among others, the impact of the intervention on factors such as dietary intake of fiber, and other nutrients, as well as healthy behaviors and food choices, and quality of life at 6 months post-intervention, using a randomized-controlled trial. The intervention group was compared to the control group receiving no intervention to evaluate the effects of the six-week HESL intervention on our outcome measures of interest.

| Intervention Group | Behavioral | Intervention group participants met once a week, for 2.5 hours, over a period of six weeks for the HES workshops. The HES workshops followed a scripted curriculum that incorporated information from the USDA's MyPlateTM, and the USDA 2015-2020 dietary guidelines. Participants were also taught goal-setting, problem-solving through brainstorming, group support, self-assessment and management of dietary and physical activity patterns. |
