Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia, resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. The abnormalities in carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism that are found in diabetes are due to deficient action of insulin on target tissues (www.ispad.org)....

Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases of multiple aetiologies characterized by hyperglycaemia together with disturbances of carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. The chronic hyperglycaemia of diabetes is associated with microvascular damage affecting, particularly, eyes, kidneys, nerves, and heart, together with an increased risk of macrovascular disease (1).

Prameha is disease of Mutravaha Srotasa having Kapha dominancy which can be correlated with diabetes mellitus. The term diabetes mellitus describes a metabolic disorder of multiple etiologies characterized by chronic hyperglycemia with disturbances of carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. Madhumeha is considered as a subtype under the Vatika type of Prameha and it is characterized by passage of urine with sweet taste like honey along with sweetness of whole body. With appropriate use of Ayurvedic preventive measures such as Dincharya, Ritucharya, Aharvidhi and therapeutic measures Madhumeha (DM) can be prevented.

SummaryDiabetes mellitus is one of the most common chronic diseases which continue to increase in number and significance. It presents the third most prevalent condition among medically compromised patients referring for dental treatment. Diabetes mellitus has been defined as a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. Hyperglycemia leads to widespread multisystem damage which has an effect on oral tissue. The present article summarizes current knowledge regarding the association between diabetes mellitus and oral and dental health.

Diabetes melitus adalah suatu kelompok penyakit metabolik dengan karakteristik hiperglikemia yang terjadi karena kelainan sekresi  insulin, kerja insulin atau keduanya. Indonesia sebagai salah satu negara berkembang dengan jumlah penduduk yang tinggi memiliki risiko terjadinya masalah kesehatan yang lebih besar. Salah satu masalah kesehatan adalah meningkatnya epidemi diabetes melitus. Saffron, Crocus sativus, tanaman yang berasal dari genus Iridaceous, adalahtanaman yang dianggap sebagai salah satu tanaman herbal yang penting dalam bidang medis, kosmetik dan industri higienis lainnya.Review ini disusun dengan melakukan penulusuran sumber pustaka melalui database NCBI, Garuda, Sinta, dan Google Scholar. Hasil dari penelusuran 19 artikel yang ditemukan yaitu saffron memiliki kandungan crocin crocetin, procicin, safranalyang dapat menjadi kandidat antioksidan yang memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap kadar glukosa dalam darah.  Kata kunci: Crocus sativus, diabetes melitus, glukosa, saffron  POTENCY OF SAFFRON AS ANTIDIABETIC  ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitusis a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycemia that occurs due to abnormal insulin secretion, insulin action or both. Indonesia as a developing country with a high population has a greater risk of health problems. One health problem is the increasing epidemic of diabetes mellitus. Saffron, Crocus sativus, a plant that belongs to the Iridaceous genus, is a plant that is considered one of the important herbal plants in the medical, cosmetic and other hygienic industries. This review was compiled by searching literature sources through NCBI, Garuda, Sprott, and Google Scholar databases. The results of 19 articles search found that saffron contains (crocin crocetin, procicin, safranal) which can be candidates for antioxidants that have a significant effect on glucose levels in the blood  Keywords: crocus sativus, diabetes mellitus, glucose, saffron

The goal of this review is to develop the hypothesis, and review the evidence, that protein restriction, through synergistic effects on multiple organ systems predisposes to loss of normal regulation of fuel homeostasis that plays the central role in the development of type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. The ability of insulin to regulate glucose production and disposal varies between individuals. These differences, together with the various compensatory mechanisms that are invoked to attempt to normalize fuel homeostasis, are of fundamental importance in the development and clinical course of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Protein deprivation impacts on both insulin secretion and insulin action. These effects may persist even when a diet containing adequate protein is presented subsequently. Data are presented that suggest that protein restriction results in an impaired ability of pancreatic β-cells to compensate adequately for the defect in insulin action in insulin-resistant individuals. This persistent impairment of insulin secretion resulting from protein restriction predisposes to loss of glucoregulatory control and impaired insulin action after the subsequent imposition of a diabetogenic challenge. This inability to maintain the degree of compensatory hyperinsulinaemia necessary to prevent loss of glucose tolerance may have relevance to the increased incidence of diabetes on changing from a nutritionally-poor diet to a Western diet, and to the hypothesis that some cases of type 2 diabetes in adulthood may be related to poor early nutrition.

Diabetes mellitus is a disease characterized by hyperglycemia, which is caused by impaired insulin secretion, impaired insulin action, or both. Chronic hyperglycemia will lead to dysfunction and damage to various organs, such as the eyes, kidneys, nerves, heart, and blood vessels. This paper discusses the monitoring of patients with diabetes mellitus according to the laboratory tests, to know when the results of therapy has reached the optimum point as well as the prevention of complications that can occur.

Diabetes mellitus metabolic cum vascular syndrome of multiple aetiologies characterized by chronic hyperglycemia with disturbances of CHO, Fat and Protein metabolism resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action or both. This disorder is frequently associated with long term disease, which can lead to failure of organs like eyes, kidneys, nerves, heart, and blood vessel. In recent years India has witnessed a rapidly exploding epidemic of Diabetes. Indeed, India today leads the world with its largest number of Diabetic people in any given country. WHO estimates there are 32 million with Diabetes in India with Diabetes in 2000, which is projected to rise by 80 million by the year 2030? Increase in prevalence is rapid in urban areas from 2% 1970s to 12% in 2000 and in rural areas also it is now beginning to increase. Nutrition is often said to be the cornerstone of diabetes care. The goal for nutritional management is optimal metabolic control through a balance between food intake, physical activity, and if necessary, medication to avoid complications.
