Brief Summary

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

The goal of this feasibility study is to assess the feasibility of a nutrition education module in modifying sugar consumption among individuals with cardiometabolic risk. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Is the nutrition education (focusing on modifying sugars intake) intervention feasible to individuals with cardiometabolic risk?
* Can the intervention be delivered as planned and works as intended?
* What are the experiences, perspective and barriers of individuals with cardiometabolic risk when receiving the nutrition education intervention?
* Is the nutrition education intervention efficient in modifying the eating behaviour including the sugar consumption among individuals with cardiometabolic risk?

Participants in the Control Group and Intervention Group will attend three standard diet counselling, with additional sugar education for the Intervention Group.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study aims to assess the feasibility of a nutrition education module in modifying sugar consumption among individuals with cardiometabolic risk. This feasibility study will recruit patients from the Teaching Hospital of Universiti Putra Malaysia. Subjects' selection will be based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the study. This is a three-month feasibility study. Participants will be randomly assigned into two groups (Control and Intervention Groups). Participants in the Control Group will attend three standard diet counselling at baseline, week-4, and week-8. Participants in the Intervention Group will also attend three individual diet counselling and will be educated about sugar calculation (sugar exchange).
