Diabetes Mellitus, especially type 2, is a growing epidemic in India as citizens are increasingly adopting western life styles. A particular genetic predisposition in these populations is indeed present. Current estimates indicate that 8.2% of the adult population, or 72.1 million people, have diabetes, 65.1 million of whom live in India. The management of this disease and its complications and co morbidities is a big challenge, especially for the healthcare, considering the low level of expenses that are dedicated to it.
