Diabetes mellitus is a group of diverse illnesses that often show hyperglycemia and glucose intolerance via insulin shortage, insulin impairment or both (Sicree et al., 2006). These difficulties occur due to disruptions in regulation systems controlling the storage and movement of metabolic fuels, including carbohydrate, lipid and protein catabolism and anabolism, induced by poor insulin production, insulin activity or both (Shillitoe, 1988; Votey and Peters, 2004). With more than 62 million diabetics already diagnosed in India, the situation of a potential pandemic is approaching fast.
