<![CDATA[Random Blood Glucose (RBG) is one of the indicators of glucose metabolism that may be influenced by dietary patterns, including the frequency of sweet food consumption. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the frequency of sweet food consumption and RBG levels among adults aged 40–60 years in RW 03 Kampung Warungcina. This study used a quantitative analytical method with an observational design and a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 26 respondents selected using purposive sampling. The frequency of sweet food consumption was assessed using a questionnaire covering 10 types of sweet foods consumed during the previous month, while RBG levels were measured using the Point-of-Care Testing (POCT) method with an Easy Touch device. Pearson correlation analysis was performed after the data were found to be normally distributed based on the Shapiro-Wilk test. The results showed a significant relationship between the frequency of sweet food consumption and RBG levels, with a correlation coefficient of 0.536 and a p-value of 0.005 (p<0.05). The relationship was positive and moderate in strength. It can be concluded that there was a significant relationship between the frequency of sweet food consumption and RBG levels among the respondents in RW 03 Kampung Warungcina.]]>
