The height, weight and blood pressure of each subjects were taken. Each was given a standardized amount of food. Two hours after, blood sugar levels were determined using a glucometer. The results were classified as positive and negative postprandial hyperglycemia and risk factors as well for both groups were determined. A total of one hundred seventy two (172) subjects twenty year old and above participated as selected by total enumeration regardless of their civil status, educational attainment and economic status. Each item at the questionnaire was interpreted and tabulated to facilitate easy interpretation. As gathered and interpreted, data revealed that the population resulted into two groups: The negative hyperglycemic (91.86%) and the positive hyperglycemic groups (8.14%). The positive hyperglycemic groups were further subdivided into frank diabetics (5.81%) and hyperglycemics (2.33%), both classified into those with risk factors and those without. The researchers concluded that those who are positive for risk factors are prone to develop Diabetes Mellitus. However, having no risk factors does not exclude one from getting the disease. There were limitations met on the course of this study. Therefore the researchers suggest that further study be done by collecting additional literatures from local research studies, allotment of a longer time frame for the study, increasing the number of subjects and lastly additional variables regarding family functions be included.
