Summary

In Canada, there is a growing burden of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Approaches to implement nutrition recommendations and promote sustainable eating behaviours are required. The investigating research team developed an educational curriculum that includes practical information about Eating Well with Canada's Food Guide, portion control and food label reading. The research team also developed a cookbook, "Pure Prairie Eating Plan" which translates the Canadian Diabetes Association Clinical Practice Guidelines into a practical menu plan with recipes, grocery lists and cooking tips. These resources promote behaviour change and skill development to independently manage diabetes. These resources have been successfully employed in a clinical study trial conducted at the University of Alberta and in a pilot project at the community (Pure Prairie Living Program -PPLP), and showed beneficial effects in management of diabetes among participants. The objective of this study is to implement and evaluate the PPLP in a community level, to promote healthy lifestyle among people with T2D in the general community. To meet the study objective, 60 adult participants with diagnosed T2D will be recruited from three different primary care networks (total of 180 participants) and at each site 30 participants will be randomized into the education intervention (PPLP) and 30 will be the wait-listed controls (CON) receiving usual care. PPLP participants will attend 5, biweekly education sessions and a grocery store tour scheduled over a period of 3 months.The benefits of the lifestyle intervention on physiological indicators (BMI, Haemoglobin A1C, blood lipids, blood pressure) and lifestyle choices (adherence to dietary recommendations, self-efficacy and participation in physical activity) will be examined.
