Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency in insulin secretion, action or both. Insulin deficiency causes chronic hyperglycemia, leading to problems with carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism. It is the most common endocrine disorder, it is estimated that more than 300 million people worldwide will have diabetes mellitus by 2025 (B Salim, 2005). Taking this into consideration a cross-sectional study was carried out on adult women agricultural labourers of Kerala Agricultural University in 2022. Data concerning the socio-economic status, medical history, anthropometry, physical activity, dietary pattern, food frequency, and 24-hour dietary recall were collected. Anthropometric measurements indicated that 42% of subjects were overweight, 43% obese and 80% were abdominally obese. Respondents reported strong family history of diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. Meal skipping was persistent among the overweight and obese people. Almost all the respondents consumed high in fat, salt and sugar foods. Nutrients, consumed by the respondents were calculated using food composition tables (ICMR, 2020) and the results are comparing the mean intake of different nutrients, consumed by the subjects, with the RDA values, it was observed that the consumption of nutrients like carbohydrates and fat was found to be higher than RDA value. On the other hand consumption of nutrients like energy, protein, calcium and iron was found to be lower among the subjects than their recommended values.
