Objective:

To address the relationship between the proportions of carbohydrates and fat and hyperglycemia in the Chinese population.

Design:

A cross-section research involving data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey in 2009, and nutritional status and health indicators were mainly focused.

Setting:

China

Participants:

8197 Chinese individuals aged over 16 years, including 1345 subjects had a low carbohydrate and high fat diet (LCHF), 3951 individuals had a medium proportion of carbohydrate and fat (MPCF) diet, 2660 participants had a high carbohydrate and low fat (HCLF) diet and 241 people had the very high carbohydrate and low fat (VHCLF) diet.

Results:

Subjects with the HCLF diet were significantly associated with an increased risk of hyperglycemia (OR:1.142, 95%CI:1.022-1.276) when compared with the individuals with the MPCF diet. Meanwhile, people with a VHCLF diet had a higher risk of hyperglycemia (OR:1.829, 95%CI:1.377-2.429). In contrast, the association between participants with an LCHF diet and hyperglycemia was not significant (OR:1.082, 95%CI:0.942-1.243) with adjusting a series of confounding factors. Furthermore, people with a VHCLF diet were significantly associated with a higher risk of hyperglycemia in the major energy levels and social characteristics subgroup.

Conclusion:

We found the HCLF and VHCLF diets were significantly associated with a high risk of hyperglycemia. And, the association between LCHF diets and the risk of hyperglycemia was not significant.
