About this trial

This study explores perspectives of women with non-metastatic breast cancer regarding their willingness and ability to make dietary changes pertaining to foods/food products that may pose a risk to their cancer prognosis and survival.

This is a single-group study conducted entirely online. All study activities, including consent, educational brochure and surveys, will be completed remotely. Participants will receive email invitations to complete questionnaires in REDCap.

Questionnaire 1 will collect sociodemographic information (no PHI) and a brief dietary recall.

Questionnaire 2 will assess identification of ultra-processed foods. Before Questionnaire 3, participants will review a two-page educational flyer explaining the link between diet, obesity, and cancer, with information on unhealthy calories and food processing.

Questionnaire 3 will assess participants' willingness and ability to eat healthier foods and reduce unhealthy foods.

At study completion, participants will receive a thank-you message and a brief satisfaction survey.
