    Behavioral modification therapy for obesity improved nutrient intake. Participants adopted healthier eating patterns, increasing nutrient density for most essential vitamins and minerals after 20 weeks.

    Area of Science:

    • Nutrition Science
    • Behavioral Therapy

    Background:

    • Behavioral modification is a promising obesity therapy.
    • It often lacks specific dietary guidance.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine if behavioral modification training leads to nutritionally sound dietary patterns.
    • Investigate changes in nutrient intake and density.

    Main Methods:

    • Fifteen individuals participated in a 20-week behavioral modification program.
    • Dietary intake was assessed before and after the program.

    Main Results:

    • Most nutrients met Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) post-intervention.
    • Nutrient density increased for protein, fiber, vitamins A, B, and C, and iron.

  • Nutrient density decreased for carbohydrates, fat, and calcium.

    • Conclusions:

    • Behavioral modification can improve dietary patterns and nutrient intake.
    • Further attention may be needed for specific nutrients like iron, thiamin, and calcium.
