AB  - BACKGROUND: Prevention of childhood obesity is a key approach to the primary 
      prevention of noncommunicable diseases. Several models, based on the population 
      health approach and aligned with ecological models, are used to design childhood 
      obesity prevention programs around the world. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to 
      introduce the design and evaluation plan of "Iran Healthy Start (IHS)/Aghazi 
      Salem, Koodake Irani"-the customized Iranian version of Canadian Healthy 
      Start/Depart Sante health promotion program-which is now being developed in 
      Mashhad University of Medical Sciences (Mashhad, Iran) and focuses on improving 
      physical activity and healthy eating among preschool children. METHODS: We will 
      evaluate the intervention using a pilot randomized controlled design. The 
      components of intervention include customized Decoda Web-based resources for 
      children, an implementation guide for educators and managers, training and 
      monitoring, communication and knowledge exchange, building partnership, and 
      parent engagement. Outcomes include changes in anthropometry, physical activity 
      level, nutritional risk status and dietary intake, and quality of life. RESULTS: 
      The project is funded by Mashhad University of Medical Sciences. The intervention 
      was completed by the end of March 2018, and the analysis is currently under way. 
      The first results of the IHS intervention program are expected to be submitted 
      for publication in December 2018. CONCLUSIONS: The double burden of malnutrition 
      in early years children is a major health concern in developing countries. This 
      justifies the need for health promotion programs that are specifically designed 
      to target both overnutrition and undernutrition prevention. If the efficacy 
      approved, the IHS could potentially be a comprehensive health promotion program 
      for young children whose lifestyle behaviors can be improved toward a healthy 
      future life in a nutrition transition setting. TRIAL REGISTRATION: International
