Welcome to Fast Track to Health.
Welcome to the Fast Track to Health Study (known as Fast Track). This is a research study for young people who are well above a healthy weight.
Recruitment for this trial has now closed.
WHAT IS FAST TRACK ABOUT?
We will compare the effect of two different eating plans on health and well being in young people.
People who take part in Fast Track will follow one of the two eating plans below:
Intermittent Energy Restricted plan
Reduced Calorie plan
We will measure weight loss and risk factors for heart disease and diabetes.
We will measure eating behaviours and psychological wellbeing
We will see how acceptable these plans are to young people.
The study runs for 12 months and participation is FREE of charge.
