The cross-sectional design was carried out on 235 respondents who lived in Kampung Pelita Medika II, Buluh Cina village, Kampar. It was found that 27.6% of respondents had fasting blood sugar levels of more than 125 mg / dL. Factors associated with the incidence of increased fasting blood sugar levels were female, had a body mass index of more than 25 kg / m2, and central obesity.
