Summary

This clinical trial studies whether the use of a grocery delivery service (Instacart) and nutrition navigation improves food insecurity in cancer survivors. The American Cancer Society recommends a normal body mass index, regular physical activity, and a healthy diet for cancer patients. Following these guidelines may help prevent deaths among cancer patients, but few cancer patients follow them. One reason for not following the guidelines could be due to the lack of consistent access to sufficient quantities of affordable, nutritious food for an active, healthy life (food insecurity). Instacart provides users access to foods that fall under the nutrition plan for cancer survivors that can be purchased and delivered to the user's home from many different grocery stores. Nutrition navigation provides support to cancer survivors via weekly check ins to help with following nutrition guidelines and assist with ordering groceries on the Instacart platform. Using a grocery delivery service, such as Instacart, and nutrition navigation may help improve food insecurity in cancer survivors.
