Conditions
Brief summary
Weighed food records are considered the gold standard for determining dietary intake. Twenty hour urine samples are the gold standard for measuring sodium and potassium intake. However, these methods are burdensome to complete. The DQES (V2) food frequency questionnaire, a much less burdensome method of measuring dietary intake, has been previously validated in non-diabetic populations, however there has been no validation in people with diabetes.
Interventions
Validation of the DQES (V2) food frequency questionnaire against a 3 day weighed food record and 24 hour urine sample in people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The study will invole 2 study visits. At the first visit participants will complete the DQES (V2) food frequency questionnaire and be told how to complete a weighed food record. At the second visit the participants will bring in a completed 24 hour urine sample and 3 day weighed food record. The food record will be checked. Study visits will be approximately 1 week apart.
