Diabetes Mellitus Type II is a hyperglycemic disease caused by cell insensitivity to insulin. Since insulin is still produced by beta cells of the pancreas, diabetes Type II is considered non-insulin- dependent diabetes mellitus. In the early development of diabetes mellitus Type II, beta cells show disturbances in first-phase insulin secretion, meaning insulin secretion fails to compensate for insulin resistance. This research objective was to determine the correlation between zinc intake and body fat percentage with fasting blood glucose levels in diabetes mellitus Type II patients with overnutrition status in the working area of Gading Rejo Public Health Center of Pringsewu Regency. This research is quantitative with a cross-sectional design conducted in June 2024 in the working area of Gading Rejo Public Health Center of Pringsewu Regency. The sampling technique used is random sampling with a total sample size of 40 people. The instruments used include the SQ-FFQ form, food model, body composition analyzer, microtoise, digital scale, nutrisurvey, and SPSS. There is a correlation between zinc intake (p = 0.001) and body fat percentage (p = 0.001) with fasting blood glucose levels. Univariate data analysis is presented in the form of median, maximum, and minimum values. The median value of fasting blood glucose levels is 148 mg/dl with a minimum of 109 mg/dl and a maximum of 244 mg/dl, the median value of zinc intake is 3.20 mg with a minimum of 2.20 mg and a maximum of 11.30 mg, the median value of body fat percentage is 35.50% with a minimum of 25.80% and a maximum of 41.70%, and the median BMI is 27.06 kg/m² with a minimum of 23.1 kg/m² and a maximum of 34.8 kg/m².
