This study is looking at whether a whole foods diet can help teenagers with obesity reduce their body fat. The intervention, called "Whole Foods MyPlate Group," involves families receiving 4-weeks of rotating menus designed to support healthy eating for teens, including school lunch options and snacks. You might be able to join if you are between 10 and 18 years old, live at home, and have obesity (a body mass index, or BMI, that is at or above the 95th percentile for your age and gender). The researchers want to see if teens who follow this diet have less total body fat and improved measurements like weight, BMI-z scores, and waist circumference after 8 weeks compared to a control group. The study plans to enroll 60 participants, but its current status is unclear.
