A baseline genomic profile (70 genes/80 single nucleotide polymorphisms \\[SNPs\\]) augmented by common serum biomarkers specific to diet-related chronic disease (metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease \\[CVD\\], vitamin D deficiency) risk will be created. Subjects will be randomized to either personalized nutrition counseling or standard nutrition education for 6 weeks. This interval matches Service-run healthy weight initiatives such as the Army's current Fit for Performance Program. To promote self-care and engagement, a digital app will be utilized for 2 weeks for real-time health data capture with continuous feedback and will be validated with in-person RD interviews. Physical activity and injury data, sun exposure, and family history will help elucidate unique individual responses. Participant follow-up at 12 weeks will evaluate changes in anthropometrics and metabolic, cardiovascular, and vitamin D biomarkers.", 'detailedDescription': 'Precision nutrition leverages the specificity of molecular and phenotypic differences in personalizing diet and lifestyle interventions.

Risk variants were selected if minor allele frequency \\> 5% and at least two published papers verified the link to the phenotype of interest. Treatment group receives gene-based nutrition counseling for six weekly sessions; Controls receive evidence-based nutrition pamphlets, all content directed at preventing metabolic syndrome. A digital app provides real-time health data capture with continuous feedback and is verified by in-person dietitian interviews. Both groups will also use study resources independently for six weeks, returning for final body composition and serum biomarkers after the twelve-week intervention. The control group receives the genomic profile with dietary recommendations upon study completion. Data analysis will examine between-group and by-cohort differences on primary anthropometric and biomarker outcomes.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '45 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Active duty Army or Air Force\n* Age 18-45\n* Able to read and comprehend English\n* Assigned to JBLM or JBSA-Lackland,\n* Remaining on station for 5 months\n* Consider self generally healthy\n* History of or currently out of compliance with military fitness standards\n* Willing to submit 2 blood samples including one for gene testing\n* Willing to undergo 1 DEXA scan (JBLM only)\n* Willing to participate in 6 weekly nutrition counseling sessions if assigned to treatment group\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Currently diagnosed with an eating disorder\n* Pregnant\n* Current physical training profile (ie limitation)\n* Pending deployment in next 5 months\n* Pending retirement in next 5 months\n* Pending permanent change of duty station in the next 5 months\n* Currently has a pacemaker (contraindicated for bioelectrical impedance analysis)'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04959318', 'briefTitle': 'Precision Nutrition Impact on Health-Related Behavior Change', 'organization': {'class': 'FED', 'fullName': 'Madigan Army Medical Center'}, 'officialTitle': 'Precision Nutrition Impact on Health-Related Behavior Change in Active Duty Service Members', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '219081'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Treatment group or counseling group', 'description': 'The treatment group will receive a counseling intervention addressing metabolic syndrome (comprised of abdominal adiposity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, elevated fasting glucose, and elevated triglyceride level) and low vitamin D.
