Background  It remains to be determined whether the Alternate Healthy Eating Index 2010 (AHEI-2010) or the Healthy Eating Index 2010 (HEI-2010) is preferably recommended as means to assess dietary quality in people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM).    Methods  The purpose of this study was to determine whether the AHEI-2010 provides a more accurate assessment of dietary quality than the HEI-2010 in relation to diabetes status, while controlling for health markers, sociodemographic and lifestyle factors. The 2007–2010 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) was used as a representative sample of U.S. adults age 20+ years ( n  = 4097). HEI-2010 and the AHEI-2010 scores were used as measures of dietary quality and were calculated using data from the first 24-h dietary recall. Health markers evaluated include anthropometrics, blood pressure, lipid and inflammatory markers, and presence of co-morbid diseases. Least Squares Means were computed to determine differences across diabetes status (nondiabetes, prediabetes, T2DM) for total and sub-component HEI-2010 and AHEI-2010 scores, and to determine differences across total HEI-2010 and AHEI-2010 quartiles for health markers. Covariate-adjusted logistic regression was used to examine the association between total HEI-2010 and AHEI-2010 scores and diabetes status.    Results  Adults with T2DM showed higher HEI-2010 and AHEI-2010 scores compared to adults with prediabetes and nondiabetes but did not have better health markers. For HEI-2010 component scores, adults with T2DM had highest consumption (highest score) of total protein foods and lowest consumption (highest score) for empty calories ( p  < 0.01). For AHEI-2010 component scores, adults with T2DM had the lowest consumption (highest score) for sugar-sweetened beverages and fruit juice, sodium, and alcohol (lowest score). In addition, adults with T2DM had the highest consumption (lowest score) for red and/or processed meats ( p  < 0.01). However, neither total HEI-2010 nor AHEI-2010 scores were significantly associated with diabetes status ( p  > 0.05). Results suggest that neither index was clearly superior to the other in terms of its predictive ability in relation to T2DM.    Conclusion  Neither total HEI-2010 nor AHEI-2010 scores performed better in terms of their relationship with diabetes status. However, the significant relationships between 1) diabetes status and health markers and 2) between HEI-2010 and AHEI-2010 scores and health markers suggest that diet has some influence on T2DM.
