Study Summary

This trial tests if a tailored text message intervention can help CRC survivors eat more whole grain foods & less refined grain foods, which may reduce their risk of death.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for English or Spanish-speaking adults over 18 who have had colon or rectal adenocarcinoma, are not currently on cancer treatment, and own a mobile phone. They should eat grains but less than half of their grain intake is whole grains, and they must be fully recovered from any major surgeries at least 6 weeks prior.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests if personalized text messages can help colorectal cancer survivors increase their whole grain consumption. It involves sending tailored dietary advice via texts along with surveys to monitor progress and provide nutrition education.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this intervention involves only text messaging and educational content about diet, there are no direct medical side effects expected from participating in this trial.
