Consumption of More Ideal Food Options (COMIDA: Consumo de Opciones Más Ideales De Alimentos)

The Mexican Consulate runs a Ventanilla de Salud (VDS) (Health Window) program in fifty locations nationwide. The VDS provides an opportunity to provide health services to members of the Mexican community. Some of the concerns previously identified during the work at the VDS were that some individuals did not always get enough to eat, or do not always have enough money for food. This sometimes leads to unhealthy food choices-- buying and preparing foods that are inexpensive but really not good for the particpant. The investigators would like to conduct focus group to help make changes to a new diet and exercise program at the VDS called SANOS which stands for SAlud y Nutrición para todOS. SANOS aims to provide information for living a healthier lifestyle including on how to eat healthy on a small budget and how to become more physically active. The hope is that learning to eat healthy without spending a lot of money and to find simple ways to increase physical activity (like walking) will be a first step in reducing obesity rates within the Mexican community that have led to increased risks for cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Participants who reached 6-month follow-up during the COVID-19 pandemic, may be outside of the 12-month window post 6-month follow-up, and have not been able to complete HgbA1c and cholesterol measures will be invited to complete these measures in person at the VDS.
