BACKGROUND: Longer-term (≥1 y) associations between federal food assistance and federal nutrition education with BMI are unclear.
OBJECTIVES: This exploratory study determined the relationship of participation in a federal nutrition education intervention and self-selected food assistance program participation, and their combination on BMI for ≥1 y.
METHODS: Women (≥18 y) from Indiana, the United States were experimentally assigned to receive federal nutrition education of the United States (US) Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education (SNAP-Ed) program, including the 4 lessons fulfilling SNAP-Ed guidance (n = 59) or not (n = 47), or to a control group, in this longitudinal study from August 2015 till May 2017 (registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03436784). Food assistance participation was self-selected. Main outcomes were averaged triplicate measured height and weight for BMI at baseline and 1-y by trained paraprofessionals. Analysis included mixed linear models comparing BMI over time by participation in the intervention or not, food assistance or not, or combinations of both programs.
RESULTS: Obesity was classified for most participants (>60%) at both time points. BMI did not differ, nor were differences observed in BMI change >1 y based on receiving SNAP-Ed, food assistance programs, or their combination.
CONCLUSIONS: Weight was constant >1 y regardless of receiving federal nutrition education, food assistance programs, or their combination, suggesting neither these programs nor their combination cause weight gain among low-income US women in this preliminary study of these interventions among this sample.
