• Research summary

  The objective of this small study is to assess the feasibility of remotely delivering a diet and lifestyle intervention following treatment of Colorectal cancer (CRC) through telecommunications and technology. A Digital Behavior Change Intervention (DBCI) will be implemented among a population of people living with and beyond CRC to help identify if patients find this an easy and achievable way to communicate with a Registered Dietitian. The information gained from this small scale feasibility will be used to help develop a larger study on supporting people with CRC to make lifestyle changes.
