The purpose of this study was to analyse the effects of a food education programme, with easy-to-implement strategies integrated in a community-based exercise programme, on dietary pattern of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Thirty-three patients (65.4 ± 5.9 years old) were engaged in a 9-month randomised controlled trial: a supervised exercise programme (control group [CON]; n = 15; combined exercise; three sessions per week; 75 min per session) or the same exercise programme plus a concomitant 16-week food education programme (experimental group [EXP]; n = 18; 15-min. group classes and dual-task strategies during exercise). Dietary pattern was assessed using a 3-day food record at baseline and at 9 months. The intake of total fat, polyunsaturated fat, and the daily servings of vegetables significantly increased in EXP compared with the CON group. Retention and adherence to the programme were 54% and 49.5 ± 27.2%, respectively. This food education programme improved dietary pattern of patients with T2D. Special attention should be given to strategies that support participants’ attendance.

社区食品教育计划对 2 型糖尿病患者饮食模式的影响：葡萄牙随机对照试验的结果

本研究的目的是分析饮食教育计划对 2 型糖尿病 (T2D) 患者饮食模式的影响，该计划将易于实施的策略整合到基于社区的锻炼计划中。33 名患者（65.4 ± 5.9 岁）参与了一项为期 9 个月的随机对照试验：有监督的锻炼计划（对照组 [CON]；n  = 15；联合锻炼；每周 3 次；每次 75 分钟）或相同的锻炼计划加上伴随的 16 周食物教育计划（实验组 [EXP]；n = 18; 15 分钟。运动期间的小组课程和双任务策略）。使用基线和 9 个月时的 3 天食物记录评估饮食模式。与 CON 组相比，EXP 组的总脂肪、多不饱和脂肪和每日蔬菜摄入量显着增加。计划的保留率和坚持率分别为 54% 和 49.5 ± 27.2%。该食品教育计划改善了 T2D 患者的饮食模式。应特别注意支持参与者出席的策略。
