The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that an educational program on a healthy lifestyle which increases health literacy could improve long-term health and mitigate food insecurity.
A 24-month randomized clinical trial involving vulnerable families (460 participants) at risk of food insecurity to improve cardiovascular health, with an initial basic training workshop followed by randomization into three groups: 1. No further intervention; 2. A traditional advanced intervention model every three months; and 3. E-learning advanced intervention model every 15 days with YouTube videos and WhatsApp messages.
Primary objective:
- Improve cardiovascular health measured by Life's Simple 7, American Heart Association
Secondary objective
This project aims to transfer and offer to society this virtual educational strategy as a tool to improve cardiovascular health in other vulnerable populations, in a scientific, efficient, safe, and sustainable way.

| Cardiovascular Health | Improve cardiovascular health measured by Life's Simple 7 (LS7) score. LS7 score is composed of seven domains (diet, physical activity, body mass index, smoking, blood pressure, total cholesterol and fasting blood glucose). Each of seven domains were ranged from 0 poor to 2 ideal. The total score of LS7 ranged from 0-14 with higher scores indicating better cardiovascular health. | 24 months |
| Food insecurity | Improve food insecurity measured by The Food Insecurity Experience Scale Survey Module (FIES-SM) from Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. FIES-SM is composed of eight questions with dichotomous no (0 points)/ yes (1 point) responses. The final score ranged from 0 (no insecurity food) to 8 (worst insecurity food). | 24 months |
