Fuelwise Study

Online randomised control trial to evaluate the impact of Behavioural nudges in food decision

The Fuelwise study

Figuring out your dietary needs and sticking to them consistently can be tough. That’s why we’re conducting the FuelWise study.

The FuelWise study is here to assess the opportunity of using Reveal My Food new assessment tool to track baseline quality of diet and than provide tailored menu options to chose from in order to frictionlessly achieve optimal diet.

We believe that everyone deserves access to the knowledge and tools needed to improve their dietary habits and overall health. As we embark on this mission to enhance the nutrition journey for all, we recognise the invaluable insights and experiences that each member of our community brings to the table. The purpose of this study is to understand the opportunities, challenges, preferences, and needs faced by individuals when it comes to ordering food from the workplace canteen using the Reveal My Food food ordering app. Your participation will play a pivotal role in shaping Reveal My Food resources, ensuring they are tailored to support and benefit every employee's unique needs. Everyone in the study will complete some questionnaires to find out about you, whether you are eligible to take part in the study, the quality of your diet and your levels of physical activity. You will then be able to order from the workplace canteen and you will receive a daily reminder to help you prioritise your mealtime. At the end of the trial, you will be required to complete a technology acceptability questionnaire which will help us to understand in depth your experience on the platform. In order to evaluate improvements in your diet we ask you to also share the results of your latest BUPA health check. The data alongside the assessment of your diet quality will be used to understand the impact of workplace canteen choices in helping you to achieve optimal health. The study is being run by the University of Southampton and Reveal My Food food ordering app, it has received ethics approval from the University of Southampton.
