| Abstrakt: | Cooking meals at home is associated with more healthful eating and even other healthy behaviors, such as increased physical activity, but for many there are numerous barriers to making this a reality. Healthy teaching kitchen interventions aim to help patients overcome these barriers. Our pilot program worked to address this issue by demonstrating the feasibility and acceptability of a virtual culinary medicine session designed for outpatient clinic patients. Participants were recruited from a single community primary care clinic for a virtual culinary medicine session. Of the 29 subjects who attended the class, 13 (45%) filled out the pre-course survey, and 8 (26%) filled out the post-course survey. Average participant confidence in preparing snacks at home from fresh ingredients increased from 3.62 to 4.38 out of 5 after attending this session, though the results were not statistically (OR.47; P =.172; 95% CI.16 to 1.3). Post-participation comments were overwhelmingly positive. This study showed that a virtual cooking class is feasible in a community clinic setting and is positively received. In addition, a culinary class teaching healthy cooking techniques paired with nutrition training may improve patient's confidence in the kitchen. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
