Abstract

Introduction: Diabetes is a group of metabolic disease in which there are high blood sugars for a prolonged period, if untreated leads to many life-threatening complications. Diabetes is due to either the pancreas not producing enough insulin or the cells of the body not responding properly to insulin.
