| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This randomized controlled trial examined the effectiveness of intervention by providing education regarding nutrition for 1-month postpartum women. The intervention contained two core components based on the health belief model: informing the individual about the result of nutrient intake assessed using a self-administered diet history questionnaire, and providing a leaflet of significant nutritional information for postpartum women. Follow-up examinations were conducted at 3-months and 6-months postpartum. Significant differences in change of intake of calcium, zinc, iron, and total dietary fiber from 1-month postpartum to 6-months postpartum were found between the intervention group and the control group. However, no differences were found in depressive or physical symptoms between the two groups.
