Abstract:
Dietary management is an important factor in glycemic control among patients with diabetes mellitus. However, the range of food choices in diabetic diets is limited, increasing the amount of effort and time required to prepare meals. Home meal replacement and delivery meal services are a convenient and easy way to obtain meals prepared outside the home. The market is growing rapidly due to the increase in single-person households and the lifestyle change that prioritizes convenience. Therefore, in this paper, we review the recent revised notices from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety related to home meal replacement and delivery meal services, and consider how home meal replacement and delivery meal services will affect blood sugar management in patients with diabetes mellitus.
