“…In addition, the study revealed that Congolese immigrants obtained those beliefs regarding sweetened foods and type 2 diabetes from their parents and are in turn conveying those beliefs to their offspring. This is consistent with studies that demonstrate the impact of family members as primary sources of information on and assistance with health behaviors often associated with chronic diseases such as diabetes [ 27 , 28 ]. This underlines the significant and influential roles that parents play in shaping the views and attitudes of their children.…”

Objective To explore the perceptions of dietary habits and type 2 diabetes risk among Congolese immigrants living in the US. Methods Data were collected from 20 in-depth interviews and photo-elicitation techniques conducted with Congolese immigrants. The PEN-3 cultural model was used as a guide to analyze the data collected. Results Participants identified positive, existential, and negative perceptions, enablers, and nurturers associated with dietary habits and type 2 diabetes risk. Participants also acknowledged intrinsic cultural ways of understanding and interpreting the interaction between dietary habits and type 2 diabetes risk among the Congolese people which may influence their health-seeking practices. Conclusions The findings underscore the importance of culture and how sociocultural factors may play a role with designing culturally appropriate interventions aimed at addressing the risk for type 2 diabetes among Congolese immigrants in the US.

“…Consistent with our study, the support of family is generally seen as important for individuals with T2DM, and useful in terms of providing information, and assisting and encouraging dietary change (Alam et al 2012, Purcell & Cutchen 2013, Shen et al 2013, Speight & Singh 2013. Alam et al (2012), for example, who explored the experiences of British Bangladeshis with diabetes, found that family and friends were frequently used as information sources, especially where there were language difficulties.…”

Findings reveal a number of unmet information and support needs for individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. In particular, it is important for healthcare professionals and family members to recognise the significant emotional burden that diabetes imposes, and the type and quantity of information individuals with diabetes prefer. It is also important to consider levels of health literacy in the community when developing diabetes-related information or programmes.

PRACTICAL TOOLSamong those predisposed for chronic disease. 3 The transient nature and daily living conditions of individuals experiencing homelessness may interfere with their ability to effectively manage their chronic illness as they are often forced to respond to periodic crises and prioritize immediate daily living and survival needs, making the long-term planning required for continuity or preventive care unfeasible. Those individuals who are able to access health care may find that the delivery of these services is often fragmented and may be interrupted when structural factors prohibit access to care.
