Summary

This project will investigate the effects of different delivery strategies (e.g., personalised dietary advice vs generalised population healthy eating guidance) and individual consumption differences (e.g., eating styles/speeds and food types/preferences) on dietary fibre intake across the adult life-course over a 6-month period.

Detailed description

1. does dietary fibre-related knowledge and intake vary across the adult life-course? 2. what are the common barriers to dietary fibre consumption and how this modulates with increasing age? 3. what is the role of individual consumption differences on subsequent dietary fibre consumption? 4. can targeted dietary advice compared with general population healthy eating guidance delivered by the eNutri app promote dietary fibre intake?
