Abstract

Chrononutrition is a new emerging field that indicates the meal timing of the day that could significantly influence the glycemic measure. A growing number of research have examined the association between chrononutrition and overall health. However, there is insufficient evidence from Asia countries to examine meal timing and its association with glycemic measures in diabetes adults. Hence, this scoping review intended to map current study and research of the association between chrononutrition from the perspective of morning and night eating patterns in glucose tolerance among diabetes adults in Asia. A systematic search was conducted using the main electronic database, PubMed. Google Scholar, Medline, and Embase were also used as a reference for this scoping review. The inclusion criteria were adult subjects with diabetes and included an assessment of i) study in adults with diabetes, ii) interventions aimed at eating pattern and glucose measure in Asia, iii) type of study design (cohort study, cross-sectional study, and randomized controlled trials), iv) published between 2015-2022. This scoping review comprised a total of four included studies. In this review, morning and night eating patterns were categorized into two main groups, which are breakfast skipping and late-night dinner. The findings of this review have demonstrated unusual eating patterns associated with circadian misalignment and thus leading to poor glycemic control. This scoping review could provide a better grasp or understanding of the perspective of eating pattern and chrononutrition on the glycemic measure, which can lead to novel strategies to better control glucose level among adults with diabetes
