Summary

Deep South Native Americans disparately suffer from diabetes, hypertension, and obesity with only 5-10% of Native Americans living past age 65 compared to 15-17% of Whites. Standard lifestyle interventions to improve diet and physical activity behaviors have shown improvement in weight and other cardiometabolic outcomes among Native Americans. The impact of lifestyle interventions on preventable chronic diseases among Native Americans is limited by the exclusion of a multi-level approach with cultural and social enhancements that address the spiritual and social domains of physical health. Therefore, there is an urgent need to determine how spiritual and social domains of health at individual and family levels may advance lifestyle management interventions.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Behavioral Treatment

The theoretical framework for the Move \& Eat 2 Live intervention is guided by the health belief model (HBM), socioecological model (SEM) and motivational interviewing (MI) approach. Tailoring to the target community will include a standard cultural adaptation that will replace curriculum content and examples with Native American relevant foods, physical activities, and representation in materials. For this study, the intervention will be piloted in the target population and will include the first 5 sessions of the original 12-session program.
