Abstract

BackgroundTraditional obesity prevention programs are time and cost intensive. Mobile phone technology (mHealth) has been successful for behavior change/weight management in adults. We investigated the effect of a mHealth obesity prevention program on body fat, dietary habits and physical activity as well as parental self-efficacy (PSE) in healthy, Swedish 4.5-year-olds after 6 and 12 months.Methods
