Eating Fruits and Vegetables With Pleasure!
Sponsor: Laval University
Summary
The objective of this interventional study is to pilot test a newly evidence-based intervention integrating different dimensions of eating pleasure to promote the consumption of fruits et vegetables. The target population for this study is men and women, aged 18-65 years old, living with a higher weight.The main hypothesis is that this newly pleasure-oriented intervention is feasible and acceptable for the target population. Participants will be randomized in two groups, a first group receiving the newly, 12-week pleasure-oriented intervention (intervention group) and a second group receiving no intervention (control group). Participants will: * Complete a battery of online questionnaires at home before and after the 12-week nutritional intervention (both intervention and control groups); * For participants assigned to the intervention group only: take part in a 12-week nutritional intervention consisting of 10 group sessions held at Laval University (approximately 2 hours each) and an individual follow-up by phone (30 to 45 minutes). After each session, participants will complete a short questionnaire assessing their appreciation of the session (5 to 10 minutes), as well as a comprehensive appreciation questionnaire at the end of the 12-week intervention (25 to 30 minutes).
