The word diabetes has been derived from two words, diabetes (Greek) which means ‘siphon through’ and mellitus (Latin)which means ‘sweetened with honey’. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder, i.e. it is caused due to the malfunctioning of the pancreas, which is responsible for the production of the hormone insulin. Diabetes mellitus has the world’s largest silent killer. India has been projected by WHO as the country with the fastest growing population of Diabetic patients. It is estimated that between 1995 to 2025 diabetic patients in India will increase by 195%. The problem with diabetes mellitus is that it is very difficult to diagnose in the early stages. However, a person stick to an Ayurveda preventive strategy right from the beginning can easily prevent this disease or control it if already suffering. It is a medical condition in which there is an accumulation of glucose in the urine and blood of the person. This condition is known as hyperglycaemia.
