Effects of a cafeteria-based sustainable diet intervention on wellbeing at a large German hospital: a quasi-experimental study
This worksite cafeteria-based diet intervention yielded nominal improvements in mental and physical wellbeing among customers; this could be mediated by increased adherence to the PHD. These trends warrant verification in larger-sized intervention studies with more intense intervention dosages. Our findings underline the importance of sustainable food environments for planetary health. The protocol was registered at the German-Clinical-Trial-Register on 22/04/2024 (DRKS00032620).
