Summary

This study will test whether a digital health intervention (DASH Cloud) using smartphones can improve diet quality among women at risk for cardiovascular disease. The DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) Diet has been proven to lower blood pressure, yet dissemination efforts remain poor. This study aims to use technology to improve adherence to DASH.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

DASH Cloud

With DASH Cloud, the investigators will ask participants to track their diet daily using a commercial diet tracking app. The investigators will retrieve the diet data on our DASH Cloud platform and provide tailored feedback about a participant's DASH adherence via fully automated daily or weekly text messages. These feedback messages will describe both an individual's absolute performance and change over time. The investigators also include theory-driven tailored content that reinforces successes, offers motivational strategies, and offers short behavior change tips.

OTHER

Nutritionix Track app

DASH Light Control participants will be asked to use the Nutritionix app daily and receive publicly available written materials on the DASH diet.
