The Healthy Supermarket Coach: effects of a nutrition peer-education intervention in Dutch supermarkets on adolescents’ food purchases

The intervention was especially effective among adolescents with a low level of education. Nevertheless, to promote healthy food purchases of adolescents in supermarkets, more efforts are needed.
