Abstract: In this study we have assessed the short-term effectiveness of diabetes education on BMI reduction, changes on (FBS, Chol, TG Rates) of type 2 diabetic patients in relation to proper nutrition. A sample of 125 diabetic patients was systematic randomly chosen. The method chosen for collecting the information (Data) was through questionnaires and laboratory tests (fasting blood sugar, total cholesterol, TG) that was conducted before educational programmes and after constantly education, finally the FBS, Chol, TG and weight were compared. The study showed significant improvements in several aspects of research. This study has shown a high level of illiteracy amongst our patients, which is of course common in developing countries. Diabetics did not gain weight and their relatives lost weight after nutrition curriculum. The mean fasting blood glucose before education was 216.27 mg %, whereas it fell to a mean level of 178.39 mg % after education. The patients had significantly lower serum cholesterol after 7 month education (172 mg %), p = 0.005. The present study clearly demonstrate the great benefits of diabetes self-care education. Most of these studies and our own, have been short term. We conclude that diabetes education is appropriate achievable and worthwhile. The challenge remains as to how to continue benefit long term.
