Once an older adult develops type 2 diabetes, they often need to change their diet as part of the treatment. We report differences in dietary barriers and strategies to overcome them in 17 older adults without type 2. Data were gathered through 24-hour diet recalls, collected barriers and strategies in changing diet, and the health locus of control scales. Differences in barriers and strategies were partially explained by health locus of control subscales. People who believed that others (e.g. doctors) controlled their health were less likely to identify barriers or strategies to overcome them. The results contribute to training materials and decision aids. |
