Indonesia ranks seventh globally with 10.7 million people affected. The increasing prevalence of diabetes mellitus is correlated with the increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity. Therefore, this research was conducted to investigate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and fasting blood sugar (FBG) levels in type 2 diabetes patients at Umbulharjo 1 Public Health Center, Yogyakarta Province.

The research findings reveal no significant relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) and Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG) levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Umbulharjo 1 Public Health Center, with a two-tailed p-value of 0.338.
