Nutrition is important for individuals with diabetes (DM), as healthful eating patterns may help to attain individual glycemic, blood pressure (BP), and lipid goals (ABC goals) and to delay or prevent complications. Using data from 2,805 non-pregnant adults aged ≥20 years with self-reported diagnosed DM and complete data on diet (one day of 24-hour recall), A1c, BP, and non-HDL cholesterol in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys 2007-2016, we examined associations between five American Diabetes Association-recommended eating patterns and meeting ABC goals.
