- Abstract
The article explores the usefulness of obesity research results for improving environmental and behavioral interventions for malnourished individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). It discusses the use of obesity research findings with regard to food portion size, food reachability, food visibility and unconscious or automatic eating to help increase malnourished patients' calorie intake. Conducting more research on the eating behaviors and attitudes of adults with CF is recommended.
