Background: The reliance on ultra-processed foods (UPF) as a source of energy has increased over the last decade. Consumption of UPF is associated with increased calorie intake and increased risk for chronic disease. An intentional increase of a variety of non-ultra-processed plant foods may decrease UPF intake and reduce risk for chronic disease. Methods: The objective of this study was to determine whether an intervention to increase in the number of varieties of non-ultra-processed plant foods consumed each week along with grocery reimbursement was associated with reduced intake of UPF and reduced risk of chronic disease. An 8-week dietary intervention with the intention for subjects (22 were recruited and started the study, while 19 subjects completed the study) to consume at least 30 varieties of non-ultra-processed plant foods per week was conducted. Subjects watched a weekly educational module, received recipes and grocery lists, and received reimbursement for non-ultra-processed plant foods that were purchased. Diet assessments were conducted by 24-h recall and 3-day diet records. Fasting plasma glucose, C-reactive protein, LDL and HDL cholesterol, and anthropomorphic measurements were assessed at four time points. Results: The number of different types of non-ultra-processed plant foods consumed each week was significantly increased after the 8-week intervention compared to before (34.7 ± 10.8 vs 23.1 ± 12.1; p |
