India is known as the capital of diabetes as the rate is increasing day by day. Particularly, type II diabetes is more common. As food and dietary pattern of an individual have an important role to play in the development, treatment or prevention of NIDDM, the present study was conducted with an objective to determine the health status and food and nutrient intake of diabetics.Thirty non-insulin dependent diabetic subjects (men and women) were selected randomly from Parbhani city of Maharashtra state. Information regarding their diabetic symptoms and complications, exercise pattern, family history of diabetes, awareness regarding diabetes mellitus, consumption of different food groups in a day etc. was collected. Food intake was assessed by conducting 24 hours dietary recall method and nutrient intake was calculated using Nutritive Value of Indian foods. It was observed that almost all selected diabetic subjects had family history of diabetes and various symptoms and complications of diabetes mellitus. It was also observed that more than 50 per cent of the selected diabetic subjects were performing some or other exercise daily, preferred exercise was walking and yoga. Most of them acquired the information about various aspects of diabetes mellitus from physician, television and newspaper. Results indicated that consumption of foods such as cereals, pulses, green leafy vegetables, other vegetables, milk and milk products were found to be more by men and consumption of ischolar_mains and tubers and fruits were found to be more by women. It was also noticed that intake of fats and oils and sugar and jaggary by men and women were almost same. Intake of almost all nutrients was more by men than women except calcium. The results of nutrient adequacy showed that the adequacy of nutrients such as fat, calcium, thiamin, niacin and vitamin C was more than 100 per cent, while the lowest nutrient adequacy was recorded for the β-carotene followed by riboflavin and energy in both men and women. On the whole the diet of the selected diabetic subjects was found to be nutritionally imbalanced. Hence, a dietary modification along with changes in behaviour and lifestyle needs to be followed by diabetic subjects to overcome the problems of diabetes.Keywords

Diabetes mellitus is reaching potentially epidemic proportions in India. The experiment was conducted with an objective to study the effect of supplementation of wheat grass powder on blood glucose level of the diabetic subjects. Thirty noninsulin dependent diabetic subjects as control group (15) and experimental group (15) were selected from Parbhani city of Maharashtra state. Data regarding anthropometric measurements and fasting as well as post prandial blood glucose level of the selected subjects of control and experimental group was recorded initially, at 30th day and 60th day of experiment. Supplementation of 3 g of wheat grass powder was given daily to the subjects of experimental group for 60 days. The anthropometric measurements such as weight (kg), body mass index, mid upper arm circumference (cm) and triceps skinfold thickness (mm) were found to be decreased after the supplementation of wheat grass powder for two months, but the significant difference was noticed only for weight and BMI values. On the other hand specific trend was not noticed in the anthropometric measurements of the subjects of control group. Mean fasting and post prandial blood glucose level of the selected diabetic subjects of experimental group were significantly decreased from 192.13 ± 59.41 mg/dl to 179.46 ± 54.79 mg/dl and from 266.93 ± 81.47 mg/dl to 244.86 ± 77.59 mg/dl, respectively after 60 days of supplementation of wheat grass powder, whereas slight increase was noticed in the selected diabetic subjects of control group. Hence, supplementation of wheat grass powder for two months resulted in reducing the blood glucose level of diabetic subjects therefore being a natural product; wheat grass could be considered as effective measure for management of diabetes mellitus.Keywords
