A Nutrition Education Module to Modify Sugar Consumptions Among Individuals With Cardio Metabolic Risks
The goal of this feasibility study is to assess the feasibility of a nutrition education module in modifying sugar consumption among individuals with cardiometabolic risk. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Is the nutrition education (focusing on modifying sugars intake) intervention feasible to individuals with cardiometabolic risk?
- Can the intervention be delivered as planned and works as intended?
- What are the experiences, perspective and barriers of individuals with cardiometabolic risk when receiving the nutrition education intervention?
- Is the nutrition education intervention efficient in modifying the eating behaviour including the sugar consumption among individuals with cardiometabolic risk?
Participants in the Control Group and Intervention Group will attend three standard diet counselling, with additional sugar education for the Intervention Group.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Proportion of eligible potential candidates who agree to participate in the study
Time Frame: At screening period. All subjects who agree to participate in the intervention will be determined.
|
This can be determined by dividing the number of potential patients who agree to participate in the study by the total number of eligible patients in the patient lists.
|
At screening period. All subjects who agree to participate in the intervention will be determined.
|
Proportion of subjects in the intervention group who take up the intervention
Time Frame: At baseline of the intervention. All subjects who attend the intervention at baseline will be determined.
|
This can be determined by dividing the subjects the intervention group who take up the intervention by the number of subjects who are randomly assigned to the intervention group.
|
At baseline of the intervention. All subjects who attend the intervention at baseline will be determined.
|
Proportion of subjects who withdraw from the study or are lost to follow-up
Time Frame: Three months of the intervention. All subjects who withdraw from the study or are lost to follow-up throughout the three months intervention will be determined.
|
This can be determined by dividing the subjects who withdraw from the study or are lost to follow-up throughout the intervention by the total number of subjects who participate in the study at baseline.
|
Three months of the intervention. All subjects who withdraw from the study or are lost to follow-up throughout the three months intervention will be determined.
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Weight, height and Body Mass Index (BMI)
Time Frame: At baseline and week-12 of the intervention
|
Weight (kilograms) and height (meters) will be combined to report BMI (kg/m2).
BMI will be calculated using formula [weight in kilograms/ (height in meters)2] and cut-off point for normal BMI (18.5-24.9
kg/m2) will be used.
|
At baseline and week-12 of the intervention
|
Waist circumference, hip circumference and waist-to-hip ratio
Time Frame: At baseline and week-12 of the intervention
|
Waist (centimeters) and hip circumference (centimeters) will be combined to report waist-to-hip ratio.
Waist-to-hip ratio will be calculated using formula (waist circumference in cm/hip circumference in cm).
|
At baseline and week-12 of the intervention
|
Dietary intake
Time Frame: At baseline, week-4, week-8 and week-12 of the intervention.
|
A 3-day Food Record will be used to determine the dietary intake.
|
At baseline, week-4, week-8 and week-12 of the intervention.
|
Dietary sugar intake
Time Frame: At baseline and week-12 of the intervention.
|
A semi-quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire of added sugar intake will be used to determine the dietary sugar intake.
