Abstract: BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder that requires effective dietary management for optimal glycemic control. With the increasing availability of diabetic-friendly packaged foods, there is a growing need to understand diabetic patients’ awareness, perceptions, and consumption practices related to these products. However, limited evidence exists regarding the knowledge, attitude, and practices of diabetic patients toward such foods. METHODOLOGY: Overview the quantitative design employed a validated KAP tool with sections on demographics, knowledge (nutrition labels, sweeteners), attitudes (perceptions, trust via Likert scales), and practices (consumption frequency, preferences via multiple-choice). Data underwent descriptive and inferential analysis (e.g., chi-square tests) using statistical software to identify associations with variables like age and education. RESULTS: Cross-sectional study among diabetic patients showed that most participants were middle-aged. Awareness of diabetic-friendly packaged foods and nutrition label reading was high, with carbohydrates considered the most important nutrient by many respondents. Despite good knowledge, misconceptions about sugar-free foods and doubts about product safety were noted. Attitude toward these foods was moderately positive, though concerns about artificial sweeteners and labelling credibility existed. Practices reflected cautious and limited use, with preference for home-cooked foods. Education, age, and duration of diabetes were significantly associated with knowledge and practices, while gender showed no significant association.
