Describe the theoretical basis for the study

The main reason for this study is to find ways to prevent child obesity.

The basis for this research is to find a collaborative way to reducing child obesity for example public health and communities working together, Hargreaves et al. 2017)

Seeks to find ways of preventing post diagnosis patient from having cardiovascular diseases.

Aim here is to find out if social media has influence on weight related behavior.

Design/Method Describe the design

and how the study

was carried out

A mixed research design is used both quantitative and qualitative methods where to prove if research supports the population care in question.

A quantitative approach method is used to describe the results using interviews and data with different groups.

Cohort randomized control groups used to fine out the if interventions proposed help reduce weight lost in these patients.

A quantitative design method of suing data such as mean, average, kg, cm seeks to prove if interventions are effective in reducing weight.
