Abstract: Background and Objective: Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a very common non-communicable disease in India with the number of diabetes cases increasing every year at an alarming rate. Several nutrients are important modulators of glucose metabolism. Glycaemic management in T2DM has become increasingly complex. To assess the management of T2DM in the selected subjects and to find the correlation between the nutrient intake and glycaemic control of diabetics. Research design: It was a cross-sectional hospital based survey, purposive sampling method was used to select 60 type 2 diabetics (vegetarian=30, non-vegetarian=30) aged 60-70years, BMI>22.9 and without complications from a private hospital Coimbatore. Ethical clearance was obtained before the start of the study. Results: Nutrient intake did not meet recommendations. The protein intake of vegetarian and non-vegetarian were 44.41±7.69g and 45.58±6.27g respectively, which were below the recommended protein intake (15% of total daily energy intake), HbA1C was high when compared to reference standard for glycaemic control (<6.5%). Multiple regression statistical analysis revealed that calcium intake influenced HbA1c values in vegetarians, while fat intake influenced HbA1c value in non-vegetarians. Conclusion: This study showed that high carbohydrate intake and low fat intake was associated with high concentrations of HbA1c in high calorie consuming overweight type 2 diabetic patients.
