dc.descriptionType 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a non-communicable disease that has great impact on the population. Unhealthy lifestyles, including poor eating habits and lack of exercise, appear to be the main factor that contributes to the increasing prevalence of T2DM in Malaysia. Dietary management and modification through balancing the right amount of macro- and micronutrients is considered a critical part of diabetes care. Food price affects food choices of patients with chronic diseases and needs to be considered to ensure the quality of food consumed, particularly in terms of nutritional intake. This study, therefore, aimed to produce a healthy and balanced menu, with minimal cost, tailored to individual needs by using linear programming (LP), that can help patients to better manage diabetes. This was a cross sectional study involving 120 UKM staff aged 30-59 years old with T2DM. Data collection includes information such as socio-demography, anthropometry, dietary intake and food security, the subjects' T2DM duration, recent HbA1c level, and average blood glucose plasma concentration over a period of three months. A healthy and balanced diabetes management diet model and minimum-cost menus were produced by using LP. Optimal and balanced menus were produced based on four guidelines, namely MDG 2010, RNI 2017, ADA 2013 and CPG 2015. There were no significant differences found between groups or categories within each socio-demographic characteristic when comparing HbA1c levels among subjects. Significant differences were found between men and women in daily intakes of energy, carbohydrates and fat, but not protein and crude fibre. Three menus were produced using LP following the optimization model, set at different energy intake categories, namely 1200-1400 kcal/day, 1400-1600 kcal/day, and 1600- 1800 kcal/day. Model 1 consists of 1391 kcal/day at RM9.94, Model 2 is 1524 kcal/day at RM9.23, and Model 3 is 1714 kcal/day at RM 9.17. In conclusion, LP can be an effective tool in producing optimized healthy and balanced diet at minimal cost based on local market prices by interpreting and translating dietary recommendations into a nutritional model.Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a non-communicable disease that has great impact on the population.
