About this study

Official title: Epidemiological Study to Evaluate the Dietary Composition of Indian Type-2 Diabetic Patients Compared to Non-diabetic Population

The study is designed as an interventional (as blood investigations will be done) dietary survey of diabetic \& non-diabetic population sample of India to understand \& compare dietary patterns among them.The study objective is to find out amount of carbohydrate content of daily diet of diabetic population study . This study does not intend to study the effect of any drugs. There will be 2 groups : Type 2 diabetics and non diabetic population. The study will begin after the study approval by ethics committee. The subject will involved after they sign the consent form. The study involves general examination of patients, collection of data like history of disease, interview by dietitian with the help of questionnaire, blood investigations (only in diabetic population only) and glycaemic control status of only diabetic population.The study is planned to be enroll 800 subjects (400 in each groups) from 10 study centers spread across India. The study data will be analyzed with appropriate statistical methods.
