Diabetes type two is one of the fastest growing public health problems in the world. It is difficult to treat and expensive to manage. It has been estimated that the number of people with diabetes in the world will double from the current value of about 190 million to 325 million during the next 25 years (WHO, 2016). Individuals with type-2 diabetes are at a high risk of developing a wide range of complications such as cardiovascular disease, peripheral vascular disease, nephropathy, changes to the

It often results from excess body weight and physical inactivity. The expected number of diabetic patients 438 million by 2030, an increase of 54% compared to predicted figures for 2010(2). Macro vascular diseases such as coronary artery disease are one of complications of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The prevalence

There are four types of diabetes; there is the pre-diabetic stage, type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes. In 2014, 29 million people died due to diabetes.
