Tracking exercise, eating smart electronic devices and software continue to enter the market, how effective are they? The University of Sydney website in Australia recently published a recent test that a special weight-loss “intervention package†based on the features of mobile phones has worked.
To conduct research, researchers at the University of Sydney's Charles Perkins Research Center designed a mobile “intervention package,†which includes text messaging, APP software applications, regular email delivery, and fitness coaching manual phone services.
In the trial, the researchers selected 250 volunteers who were all obese and were between the ages of 18 and 35. The researchers randomly divided them into two groups, one using the mobile “intervention package†and the other as the control group.
During the 12-week follow-up trial, participants in the package group will receive a “Daily Encouragement SMSâ€, “Coach Phone Guidance Serviceâ€, weekly emails, etc. In addition, they can also get their own unique APP account, from which they can learn the basics of weight loss and self-monitoring. The control group only received 4 emails, a phone introduction to the research project, and a two-page project profile.
As a result, it was found that the number of vegetables in the daily diet of the participants in the package group increased, the number of soft drinks and high-calorie snacks decreased, and the amount of exercise increased. The average weight of the group decreased by 2.2 after the trial. Kilograms, while the weight of the control group did not change significantly.
The University of Sydney professor Farinelli, who led the study, said the trial proved that using the "interference package" approach to control obesity among young people is effective.
The next step is to design a mobile “intervention package†for people of different ages to help them lose weight. At the same time, this scientific research idea needs to be extended to the market to attract commercial companies to develop more mobile phone “intervention packages†or “weight loss packagesâ€.
