Abstract:
The interactions between genetic variations and dietary factors in type 2 diabetes mellitus have attracted some attention. Several studies revealed that dietary carbohydrate quality and quantity and increased dietary fat intake might interact with genetic variations of type 2 diabetes mellitus and increase risk of this disease. Genome-wide association studies suggest that genetic variance may modulate the association between dietary pattern and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
