Diabetes is a leading chronic health issue in Australia, affecting over 1.5-2 million adults (6.6%, or one in 15), with prevalence up from 5.1% a decade ago and true rates potentially 35% higher due to andgt;40% undiagnosed cases. General practitioners (GPs) manage ~90% of cases in primary care and are central to diagnosis, monitoring, and counselling. Nutrition and lifestyle interventions are pivotal for prevention, management, and reversal of diabetes, but only 43% of patients receive nutrition advice, with 34% reporting behaviour change. Australian GPs report barriers beyond training, including time constraints and limited confidence in delivering nutrition counselling, despite recognising its importance. Nutrition remains under-embedded in training, despite RACGP Curriculum emphasis. Robust evidence supports plant-based diets—rich in whole grains, legumes, fruits, vegetables—for diabetes prevention (34% risk reduction), management (HbA1c drops 0.4-1.5%), and reversal (37-43% remission), outperforming standard diets in randomised controlled trials. This way of eating improves insulin sensitivity, lipids, and chronic kidney disease risk, yet GPs rarely counsel it due to unfamiliarity with studies and tools.

This training addresses readiness in education and has been shown to be more likely to enable clinicians to become equipped for the work. This includes promoting commitment; adopting an advocacy approach; trusting the relationship; collaborating with a team; and being supported by the health system. There is evidence that GPs can be trained to improve identification and response to DFV. In line with best practice, the program has a whole of practice approach and promotes staff to identify changes they can make at the individual and clinic level that would support the work. This training supports GPs within Tasmania to work with their practice staff and FV services to enhance their capacity to address DFV.
