dc.description | Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease whose control requires a comprehensive approach, including monitoring, medication administration, and especially the adoption of appropriate eating habits. These habits can directly influence the stability of glucose levels and the prevention of long-term complications. Objective: To determine the influence of eating habits on diabetes control in patients attending the Guanujo Health Center in Guaranda Canton. Methodology: This was a field-based, non-experimental, analytical, correlational, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach using deductive, inductive, and analytical methods. It was based on bibliographic theories, data collection through a survey validated by experts, and fasting glucose levels. Results: The largest proportion of adults studied was female, at 64.9%, while males accounted for 35.1%. The highest age group was adults over 65 years of age, at 47.4%, followed by 38.6% between 50 and 64 years of age, and the lowest age group was those between 25 and 49 years of age, at 14%. It was observed that the adults had poor eating habits, with a low consumption of foods with a low or moderate glycemic index and a high consumption of foods with a glycemic index greater than 70, such as white bread, rice, and processed foods. Control was assessed, and it was observed that 50.88% of adults had elevated glucose levels, thus demonstrating a relationship between the two variables studied, with a p value of <0.05. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | La diabetes mellitus es una enfermedad metabólica crónica cuyo control requiere un enfoque integral tanto en el monitoreo, la administración de medicamentos y especialmente la adopción de hábitos alimentarios adecuados, los cuales, pueden influir de manera directa en la estabilidad de los niveles de glucosa y la prevención de complicaciones a largo plazo. Objetivo: determinar la influencia de los hábitos alimentarios en el control de la diabetes en los pacientes que acuden al Centro de Salud Guanujo del Cantón Guaranda. Metodología: esta investigación fue de campo, no experimental, analítica, correlacional de corte transversal con enfoque cuantitativo de método deductivo, inductivo y analítico; fundamentado a través de teorías bibliográficas, recolección de información por medio de una encuesta validada por expertos y la toma de valores de glucosa en ayunas. Resultados: La mayor proporción de adultos estudiados estuvo representada por el sexo femenino con un 64,9%, mientras que el sexo masculino representó el 35,1%, de acuerdo, con el grupo etario el mayor predominio fueron los adultos mayores de 65 años con el 47,4%, seguido del 38,6% entre 50 a 64 años y por último el grupo etario con menor predominio fue el de 25 a 49 años con el 14%. Se observó que los adultos tuvieron hábitos alimentarios inadecuados con un bajo consumo de alimentos con índice glicémico bajo o moderado y un alto consumo de alimentos con un índice glicémico mayor al 70 como el pan blanco, arroz y alimentos procesados; se evaluó el control de la glucosa y se observó que el 50,88% de los adultos tienen niveles de glucosa elevados, demostrando de esta manera que existe una relación entre ambas variables estudiadas con un valor de p=<0,05. | es_ES |
