Abstract

A condition in which individual are at greater risk of progressing to type 2 DM & have an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases is called as prediabetes, if neglected converted to type 2 DM in long term. The worldwide prevlance of DM has risen over the past 2 decades, from an estimated 30 million cases in 1985 to 382million in 2013. The international diabetes federation projects that 592 million individuals will suffer from diabetes by the year 2035. Depending on the etiology of the DM, factors contributing to hyperglycemia include decreased insulin secretion, decreased glucose utilization and increased glucose production. DM is the leading cause of end stage renal disease, non traumatic lower extremity amputations, adult blindness and predisposing factor to cardiovascular diseases. With increasing incidents worldwide, DM will be leading cause of morbidity & mortality in future. As stated in our classics sedentary lifestyle, frequent intake of some dietary products like curds, soup of flesh of domestic, aquatic and marshy land animals, milk preparations, freshly  harvested foodgrains, freshly prepared alcoholic drinks, jaggery and its products are the causative factors of Prameha. In due course of time all types of Prameha even after proper or improper treatment gets converted to Madhumeha. Since these factors are responsible for manifestation of Poorvaroopa of Madhumeha (prediabetic symptoms) a survey based study has been conducted.
