Abstract This review highlighted a fundamental dietary recommendation of ω-3 in-take for Malaysian T2DM patients through assessment of previous T2DM guidelines. Any adult T2DM evidence-based guideline or CPG was consid-ered for this review. Title and abstracts were screened based on the inclu-sion/exclusion criteria and the descriptive data were extracted. From 392 records, 30 were shortlisted; but only twelve were included. Six guidelines suggested fatty fish consumption, with three guidelines recommended at least two/three fatty fish serving weekly, others proposed the plant source of ω-3, like the daily consumption of 2g-3g of plant sterol, 10g daily flaxseed intake and plant-based fats/oil, nuts, seeds. Another three guidelines men-tioned a general recommendation of PUFAs. In conclusion, incorporating ω-3 in T2DM management is beneficial and a recommendation of weekly serv-ing of at least two/three local fatty fish and daily intake of plant-based ω-3, seeds, legumes and enriched vegetable oil were suggested for Malaysian T2DM patients.
