Method:This study used a cross-sectional design with 100 adults aged 30–60 years as respondents. Sampling was carried out by purposive sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and fasting blood sugar examinations. Data analysis used the Chi-Square test. Results:There was a significant relationship between diet (p=0.003), physical activity (p=0.010), and family history (p=0.001) with the incidence of type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
