Abstract:
To some diabetalogists/diabeticians, and certainly the majority of the general public, the title of this commentary might come a bit as a surprise. What is known about diabetes mellitus (DM), as a medical condition, that it is a group of linked biochemical-physiological disorders initiated by pathological rise in the circulating blood glucose concentration. This hyperglycemia develops mostly as a consequence to either hypoinsulinemia (DM type-1) or cellular insensitivity to insulin (DM type-2).
