摘要：Purpose: This study was carried out to determine the relationship of daily dietary fructose intake with body composition and some biochemical parameters in individuals with diabetes.Method and material: A total of 156 individuals with diabetes, 53 men and 103 women, between the ages of 30 and 65 ( =51±8.59 years old) participated in the study. Research data was obtained through face-to-face interviews conducted by the researcher using a questionnaire, which included general information, dietary habits, daily food consumption record.Results: The fructose intake of the men was 13.2±12.09 g/day and that of the women was 13.6±11.10 g/day (p>0.05). The ratios of the daily dietary energy intake from fructose were 7.4±5.56% and 7.4±5.34% in men and women, respectively. It was determined that the individuals consuming the highest levels of fructose (Q4) had higher BMI, waist circumference and average visceral fat, serum VLDL-C, HbA1c levels and lower serum HDL-C levels than the individuals consuming the lowest levels of fructose (Q1). It was observed that Q4 obtain higher levels of energy, carbohydrates and fat than Q1 (p0.05).Conclusion: Further studies are needed to develop more specific suggestions regarding fructose intake and to better understand the relationship between fructose intakes, body composition and biochemical parameters in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
