Diabetic millets often referred to simply as diabetes (Ancient Greek: diabetes" to pass through [urine]") is a syndrome of disorder metabolism, usually due to a combination of hereditary and environment causes, resulting in abnormally high blood sugar level (hyperglycemia).Diabetes is described as starvation in the midst of plenty.

If the body cells cannot absorb the glucose, the glucose accumulates in the blood (hyperglycemia), leading to acute metabolic complications including keto acidosis and in the long term contribute to chronic micro-vascular complications.
