Brief Summary: Healthful eating is a core component of a healthy lifestyle that is associated with lower risk of obesity and chronic disease Although adolescent health promotion programs have been extensively evaluated and applied in English-speaking Western developed nations there is very little published literature in the Russian context Our study seeks to determine the relative effectiveness of a healthy lifestyle intervention consisting of nutrition education at a Russian camp Investigators will determine the impact of behaviorally focused nutrition education on nutrition knowledge food choice attitude and self-efficacy for healthful eating compared to standard nutrition education
Detailed Description: The project consists of the evaluation of two evidence-based nutrition education programs

Setting and participants A random selection of all youth with parental consent for the program will comprise the sample of 40 boys and girls ages 8-12y Children with food allergies to fruits vegetables nuts crackers corn pops cookies will be ineligible for participation Participants will be randomly assigned to either behaviorally oriented nutrition education or standard nutrition education group comparison group Measures Questionnaires will be completed by each participant at the baseline the first day and post-intervention the last session day The questionnaire addresses nutrition knowledge self-efficacy and enjoyment of fruit and vegetable consumption Controlled observation of healthyunhealthy snack selection at the baseline and post-intervention kids will select snacks first from a menu individual measure and then a buffet group measure with 3 healthy fruits and vegetables nuts and 3 unhealthy crackers corn pops cookies snack options Measurements of height weight and waist circumference will be taken prior to the first nutrition education session Demographics Investigators will obtain information on age gender ethnicity family socioeconomic status and parental education level via questionnaire Procedures Parents will be informed about potential for child to be involved in healthful nutrition and physical activity at camper check-in After an informed consent is signed parentscaregivers and the participant will fill out baseline questionnaires The parent survey will ask about their childs ethnicity parental education level and family socioeconomic status

Each participant will privately have their height weight and waist circumference measured prior to start of study Participants will attend 45 minute sessions from Monday to Friday throughout 3 weeks at the camp Each session will be held using different modules from the evidence-based HOPN After School program The difference in sessions between the intervention and comparison group will be that the intervention group will get both nutrition education and skill-training component during the session for example creating a healthy snack playing games focusing on enjoyment of fruit and vegetable consumption the control group will not receive the skill-training component but will get the same nutrition knowledge as the intervention group Controlled observation snack tests will take place at the beginning and at the end of the program baseline and post-intervention
