Sponsor's own description

Hypertension and diabetes, which are increasing in prevalence, contribute to significant morbidity and mortality in the U.S. Self-management of these diseases, including adherence to dietary guidelines such as daily fruit and vegetable intake, can improve outcomes, but low-income patients encounter many barriers to adherence, such as food insecurity and poor nutrition literacy. Few clinicians screen for food insecurity, and even when screening is performed, there are few tested clinical response models. This study will evaluate the benefits of fresh fruit and vegetable home delivery program, without and with small-group culinary medicine cooking classes, on blood pressure and glucose control among patients accessing care at the University of Oklahoma Internal Medicine Clinic in Tulsa, OK. The Produce Drop pilot study will evaluate the feasibility and potential health benefits of a clinic-community partnership between OU Internal Medicine and a fresh produce home-delivery service provider, to promote adherence to F/V dietary guidelines among patients with suboptimal blood pressure and blood glucose control. Among half of those assigned to receive food assistance, we will evaluate the additional benefits of participation in 3-session, small-group, hands-on culinary medicine curriculum.
