Abstract Background:
MASLD is turning into a significant health issue in underdeveloped nations because of the quick urbanization, changes in lifestyle, and poor dietary choices. This study set out to investigate the dietary practices of MASLD patients at a tertiary care hospital and how these practices relate to several metabolic comorbidities.
Aim:
To assess the dietary patterns among individuals diagnosed with MASLD and explore their association with T2D and obesity.
Methods:
A cross-sectional observational study was conducted over 6 months among 100 MASLD patients aged 18–60 years attending the Gastroenterology outpatient department. We recruited people for the study who met certain criteria, such as having a BMI of 23 or higher, a fasting glucose level of 100 mg/dL, or an HbA1c of 5.7% or higher. We collected the information using a standard food
questionnaire. Then, we studied eating habits, food quality, and their relationship to things like diabetes and BMI.
Results:
The study found that most participants were male (73%) and well-educated. However, high education levels did not correlate with healthy dietary choices. The participants in the study consumed diets rich in refined carbs, saturated fats, and processed foods like cookies (86%), sugary drinks (89%), and fast food. Their breakfast choices were especially lacking, with low levels of
fiber and protein. Even though 90% included nuts in their diets, it was not enough to offset the overall inadequate quality of their eating habits. Most participants were either overweight or obese 92%), with an average BMI of 29.6. Interestingly, only 27% had type 2 diabetes, showing that MASLD can occur even without diabetes. Additionally, physical inactivity was quite common
among the group.
Conclusion:
Sedentary lifestyles, obesity, and unhealthy eating habits are linked to MASLD in this group. Even as education levels rise, these poor eating patterns persist. This emphasizes how urgently community-specific public health programs are needed, lifestyle change programs, and dietary counseling that resonates culturally. To effectively tackle MASLD, we need a comprehensive
approach that goes beyond just medication, focusing on prevention, education, and changing behaviors. Medication emphasizes prevention, education, and changes in behavior.
