Helping people eat better, feel better, and live healthier

MyBestGI Study Goals

This research evaluates methods that can help people achieve and maintain healthier eating. 


The MyBestGI study evaluates methods that can help people learn to eat in healthier ways. The study emphasizes eating from food groups that are associated with prevention of colon and rectal cancers. These food groups contribute to a healthy gastro-intestinal [GI] system. 

The MyBestGI study is a journey of learning and discovery. Learning how to incorporate healthful foods into your lifestyle can be enjoyable and tasty too. Join the study to begin this journey!
