Black Immigrant Maternal Health in the US

Black women in the United States disproportionately experience adverse maternal health outcomes across income and education levels compared to women of other racial and ethnic groups. Still, there is limited knowledge about Black immigrants in the U.S. Black immigrants will make up about a third of the U.S. Black population by 2060. There is urgency in supporting their pregnancy and birthing outcomes. This study will conduct secondary analyses of existing data and also focus groups with Black immigrant birthing people to identify factors in the health care system that can support optimal pregnancy and birthing outcomes.

A Pilot Study of a Food is Medicine Intervention to Improve Pregnancy

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a Food is Medicine intervention when started during the first trimester of pregnancy. The eating pattern we are testing in this study is a Mediterranean-style dietary pattern adapted for the southern United States - thus, we call the program "Med-South." All who take part will receive Med-South dietary counseling. In addition, to help participants follow a Med-style dietary pattern, one group of study participants will receive extra virgin olive oil and nuts. The other group will receive extra virgin olive oil, nuts, and frozen meals (medically tailored meals) that align with the Med-South dietary pattern. Participants will be assigned at random (like flipping a coin) to one of these groups.
