TI  - Dietary carbohydrate intake in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and 
      diabetes control: a cross-sectional study.
LID - 10.29219/fnr.v64.4751 [doi]
AB  - BACKGROUND: Food intake has important implications for patients with type 2 
      diabetes. OBJECTIVE: Similarly, in other crop species, this observational study 
      aimed to assess dietary carbohydrate (CHO) and non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) 
      intake and examine their association with glycemic control among Saudi patients 
      with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). DESIGN: We investigated dietary intake in 
      404 patients (207 males and 197 females) with T2DM between November 2018 and 
      March 2019. Dietary intake was assessed by face-to-face interviews using a 
      validated dietary questionnaire. RESULTS: The results revealed that dietary CHO 
      intake (67% of energy) exceeded the recommended daily intake, and white rice 
      (Basmati rice) was the major contributor to CHO intake. However, the dietary NSP 
      intake was lower than recommended, and it was negatively associated with HbA(1c) 
      levels. CONCLUSION: This cross-sectional study showed that dietary CHO intake was 
      high among Saudi patients with type 2 diabetes, and that their daily intake of 
      NSPs was correlated with a lower level of HbA(1c). Dietary advice should be given 
      for patients with diabetes to reduce their intake of starchy food such as rice.
