Omorogieva Ojo. Nutrients. .

Abstract

This editorial aims to examine the risk factors associated with type 2 diabetes and to discuss the evidence relating to dietary strategies for managing people with this condition. It is clear from the evidence presented that a range of dietary interventions can provide useful approaches for managing people with type 2 diabetes, including the regulation of blood glucose and lipid parameters, and for reducing the risks of acute and chronic diabetic complications.

Keywords: chronic conditions; dietary intake; dietary management approaches; glycaemic control; lipid parameters; macronutrients; micronutrients; nutrition; type 2 diabetes.
