Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate short-term application of nutritional education program based on the BASNEF Model on the elderly people with type-2 diabetes. Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, 100 diabetic elders (≥60 years) were chosen who were divided into intervention and control groups, randomly. Data of control and intervention groups were collected at baseline and after three months of follow-up. The intervention consisted of four educational sessions, each one for 70 minutes. Finally, data were analyzed using chi-square, t-test and paired t-test. Findings: After implementing educational programs, mean score of all aspects of BASNEF Model (knowledge, attitude, subjective norm, enabling factors) in the experimental group had significant difference in comparison with the control group (P< 0.001). Also, HbA1c (P< 0.001), FBS (P< 0.001), TG (P< 0.001) and LDL (p=0.02) improved significantly in the experimental group. Conclusion: BASNEF-based nutritional education led to improved knowledge and attitude of diabetic elders and improved indices of metabolic outcomes during a 3-month intervention. Key Words: Nutrition education, BASNEF model, Metabolic Outcomes, Elderly, Type-2 diabetes mellitus.
