After treatment, there was moderate social support for the control group (gif.latex?\bar{x} = 2.51, S.D. = 0.81) and high social support for the treatment group (gif.latex?\bar{x} = 3.69, S.D.=0.62). The level of food knowledge in the treatment group to the high level (gif.latex?\bar{x} = 14.66, S.D. = 2.19) and was statistically significantly higher than the control group (p<.05). Lastly, food consumption behavior of both groups before treatment was ranked as moderate, but after treatment, consumption behavior of both groups was ranked as good ( gif.latex?\bar{x}= 3.67, S.D.= 0.21 and gif.latex?\bar{x} = 3.84, S.D.=0.23) with the treatment group having a significantly higher overall score than the control group (p<.05). A nutrition education program with applied social support theory could help patients improve their health behaviors.
