The case and control groups were taught face to face training and group training for two months and once every two weeks for the intervention group and at least one of their family members. At the end of two months, the questionnaire was completed again. No new training was given in the control group. Data were entered into SPSS, v. 20, and descriptive statistics of frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation were used. Inferential statistics were used to analyze the data, using Chi-square, independent t-test, paired t-test, logistic regression, and ANCOVA. Next, the results of the beginning of the study and the twomonth training program were compared. Results: Diabetic Patients Training with at least one person in their family had a significant improvement in knowledge, attitude, and nutritional function (001/0>p). Diabetic Patients Training with at least one person in their family led to a significant reduction in their BMI (p = 0.01) and it reduced the fasting blood glucose levels (p = 0.08), but this decrease was not statistically significant. Discussion: Although diabetic patients training has a significant role in promoting their knowledge, attitudes and, practice, Diabetic Patients Training with at least one person in their family plays a more effective role in this improvement.
