Mediterranean Diet: Outcomes from an Education Session Among Patients With Cancer and Nursing Staff.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Strong evidence supports the benefits of the Mediterranean diet, but little is reported among patients and nurses regarding knowledge about the diet and its health benefits. OBJECTIVES:A pre-/post-test practice initiative was implemented to identify level of knowledge about the Mediterranean diet in patients with cancer and nursing staff and to provide education about the diet's health benefits. METHODS:A 17-item survey was developed to assess knowledge and willingness to try or recommend the Mediterranean diet, current practices, and general nutrition knowledge. A 10-minute education session was provided to patients and nursing staff. Descriptive statistics were used. FINDINGS:The majority of patients reported eating from one to four servings of fruits and vegetables daily. For patients and nursing staff, post-education session scores demonstrated increased knowledge, willingness to try the diet, and perceived effectiveness of the diet.
