title: [Dietary habits of obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus].
abstract: For assessment of the way of nutrition of obese patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 (insulin-dependent), questionnaire method was used including dietary history data. The study was carried out in 50 patients during weight-losing treatment in our institute. It was found that the mean energy value of daily food ration of the patients was relatively high, exceeding both the value of predicted energy expenditure and the standard values. This was not true, however, of all patients. Among the studied patients, 32% of persons were not eating excessively, and some of them ate even less than the standards; only 24% of obese patients could have been regarded as hyperfagous. Significant dietary faults concerned also the food composition, that is mainly excessive fat content which accounted even for 46% of calorie value of daily food ration. Among other dietary faults the following should be mentioned: low vegetable content, additional eating between meals, and irregular taking of meals. The weight-losing treatment with simultaneously conducted health education contributed to the change of dietary habits of the observed patients.
