Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The overall goal of this inquiry is to determine whether PALS is more effective than comparable online resources at educating patients in the outpatient clinic setting about nutrition. Participants will be randomly assigned to view either a PALS article or WebMD article on the same nutrition topic. Participants will then fill out a post-survey to assess knowledge uptake and attitudes regarding healthy eating.
