ABSTRACT
This study was a test of the feasibility of educating a convenience sample about normo-carbohydrate nutrition (NCN). From May 2015 and May 2016, 51 participants were enrolled in this intervention study about NCN. Participants were measured for chest, waist, abdomen, and hip circumferences, weight, and height at start and month 1, 2, and 3. After 1 month, there was a significant reduction in hip circumference, weight, and BMI with similar findings after 2 and 3 months. Significant reductions in chest, hips, and weight among participants after repeated measures provide hope for this promising nutritional strategy.
