 is the most important impediment resulted from uncontrolled blood sugar. Effective control of blood sugar depends on a combination of diet. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of nutrition education on BASNEF Model for control of blood sugar among type II diabetics. Methods: This is a perspective and quasi-experimental intervention study. The research population composed of 100 type II diabetic patients (50 cases and 50 controls), aged 40 to 65, with a history of at least 5 years of diabetes. The instruments for data collection were: a questionnaire established based on the BASNEF Model (Belief, Attitude, Subjective Norm and Enabling Factors), a self reporting checklist related to the patient practice and a checklist for recording the patients' HbA1c and Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) levels. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS software, chi square-test, T-test for independent samples, matched T-test, and repeated measures ANOVA. Results: The findings indicated that the mean scores of BASNEF Model variables were significantly increased in the experimental group compared to the control group, after intervention. After the educational intervention, the mean scores of the patients' nutritional behaviour increased in the experimental group compared to the control group. Also, the rate of HbA1c (before intervention: %8.65, after three months: %7.47) and FBS level (before intervention: 207.08, after three months: 124.2) improved significantly among experimental group compared to the control group. Conclusion: Considering the results obtained in this study the application of BASNEF model is very effective in developing an educational program for diabetics. So applying educational program is recommended for diabetics in order to control their blood sugar and enhance their nutritional behaviour.&picture=http://www.aascit.org/aascit/decorators/img/journal/907.jpg)

Introduction: Complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most important impediment resulted from uncontrolled blood sugar. Effective control of blood sugar depends on a combination of diet. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of nutrition education on BASNEF Model for control of blood sugar among type II diabetics. Methods: This is a perspective and quasi-experimental intervention study.
