Diabetes type 2 is a real challenge of health across the world. Therapeutic options are varied and include various lines such as starting with giving metformin with increasing doses and ending with insulin at increasing dose model.
I think that a science philosophical problem has been involved in the research and science of diabetes. The definition of diabetes depends mainly on determining insulin level or function. But insulin level is not measured as a direct cause of diabetes, while the glucose level is measured as a result of diabetes (indirect proof). The perceived idea of diabetic cause is insulin deficiency as either in concentration or function. A functional insufficiency of the pancreas was the focus point of view which requires giving insulin treatment as diabetes progresses.
