Study Summary

This trial is testing different diets to see which is the most effective in preventing colorectal cancer in people who are overweight or obese.

Who is the study for?

This study is for overweight or obese adults with a history of early-stage colorectal cancer or polyps, or who have a family history of these conditions. Participants should be able to control their diet and not expect major lifestyle changes in the next year. They must also be willing to use an app and receive support calls.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The MyBestGI study tests three different healthy eating plans over 12 months to see which helps improve diet quality and potentially reduce weight. It includes telephone support, a web-based app, and regular check-ups with body composition measures and blood samples in Ann Arbor.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

There are no direct side effects from participating as this trial involves dietary interventions rather than medication. However, changes in diet can affect individuals differently; some may experience digestive adjustments or need medication dosage changes if they manage other conditions.
