A Digital Health Program for Non-Communicable Disease Prevention in a Workplace Setting in Thailand
The goal of this quasi-experimental study is to test the effectiveness of a digital health program designed to prevent non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in employees within a workplace setting in Thailand. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Can a digital health program help participants lose weight?
Does the digital health program improve other health outcomes such as Body Mass Index (BMI), blood lipid levels (triglycerides and LDL), blood sugar levels (HbA1c or fasting plasma glucose), and blood pressure? Is the digital health program feasible and acceptable in the Thai workplace setting, as measured by participation rates, usage, and participant satisfaction?

Participants will:

Attend four group health education sessions, each lasting one hour, scheduled over a six-month period.
Have unlimited access to individual chat consultations with a healthcare team, including doctors, dietitians, fitness coaches, and psychologists, available from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM on workdays, excluding public holidays.
