Summary

This research is examining whether an 8-week online nutritional programming based on a Mediterranean diet can achieve meaningful increase intake of a Mediterranean based diet and improvements in measures of body weight and laboratory measures of oxidative stress, a risk marker for cardiovascular disease.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Go! Foods for You without Weekly MA Support.

* Participants access and utilize an 8-week online program which provides educational materials and weekly activities based on a Mediterranean diet and dietary "practices" that have been associated with healthy weights. * Each day participants receive educational materials related to the nutritional science of a Mediterranean diet. Each week (1) a new theme for the daily educational materials is presented and (2) participants are asked to schedule "activities" on a built in calendar and practice the activity throughout the week.

BEHAVIORAL

Go! Foods for You with Weekly MA Support.

* Participants access and utilize an 8-week online program which provides educational materials and weekly activities based on a Mediterranean diet and dietary "practices" that have been associated with healthy weights. * In addition to the 8-week online program, participants receive weekly support by Medical Assistants (MA) over the phone or by email to establish a relationship and maintain program adherence by discussing the previous week's behavioral goals and setting weekly behavioral goals.
