Mobile Regulation of Craving Training (mROC-T) to Improve Dietary Intake in Rural Adolescent Girls

Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to test if a regulation of craving training intervention in the form of a mobile phone app can increase fruit and vegetable intake in adolescent girls ages 14-18 years of age. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the effect of a mobile app version of the regulation of craving training intervention on healthy eating index scores over one year? 2. What is the effect of a mobile app version of the regulation of craving training intervention on body mass index, waist circumference, and blood glucose over one year? Researchers will compare the active regulation of craving training arm to a control fun food fact arm to see if the regulation of craving training improves HEI scores, BMI, and blood glucose over a year. Participants will be asked to play the regulation of craving training mobile app twice a week for a year.
