Objective: To describe the nutritional profile and the metabolic control of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in family health units of Ribeirao Preto. Materials and Methods: This is a descriptive study, inquiry type, with patients registered in family health units of Ribeirao Preto – SP. The sample was 100 patients, being laboratory data assessed by means of medical records. The sociodemographic and clinical variables, as well as those related to the nutritional profile were obtained through home visits. Furthermore, anthropometric evaluation of the patients was performed. Body fat (%) was assessed by electric bioimpedance. The local Ethics and Research Committee approved this research. Results: The average age of the patients was 66.7 years, 64 % female, predominantly white (78%), married (58%), and with an incomplete basic school level (56%). The self-reported morbidity with the greatest prevalence was systemic arterial hypertension (71%). Concerning the nutritional diagnostic, 75% of the patients were overweight or presented obesity. As regards to glycemic control, it was evidenced that 75 and 60% of the patients, respectively, were with fasting glycemia and glycated hemoglobin (Hb1Ac) values above the recommended. The odds ratio was used to verify the association between the biochemical variables and the fat mass. However, no significant association was found. Conclusion: The majority of patients were overweight or had obesity and inadequate metabolic control.
