Diabetes is a group of metabolic diseases that have taken the center stage across the world as one of the most profound and lasting conditions that significantly reduces the quality of life for people. It has grown to epidemic proportions and approximately 400 million people currently live with diabetes across the world and this number is expected to expand to approximately 550 million by 2030. It is a peptide hormone responsible for regulating blood glucose levels. Though there is no well-defined etiology for the occurrence of type 1 diabetes, it is mostly associated with a genetic disorder or an unexpected immune system's reaction that erroneously destroys the insulin-producing cells of the islet. Major symptoms include feeling thirsty, frequent urination, constant fatigue, weight loss, and muscle loss, slow wound healing, blurred vision and repeated episodes of thrush. The only treatment widely recommended by medical practitioners is insulin intake for a lifetime. HbA1c
