In the Organon of medicine Aphorism 5, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann states that behind every chronic disease, accessory circumstances play a big role. Therefore diet, habit and life style factors are critical to the management of the diabetes disease as well as control its complications. This process is backed by many studies
Definition: Homeopathy is based on holistic approach and individualization of a particular case of the patient irrespective of their name of the diseases. In this context Diabetes Melitus can be defined Homeopathically as a chronic miasmatic disease affecting the metabolism of carbohydrate, protein, and fat characterized mainly by polyuria, polydipsia and polyphagia with varied complication, due to absolute deficiency of insulin or diminished effectiveness of it. According to international diabetes federation 2015 worldwide 387 million people living with diabetes but 46.3% undiagnosed. In the year 2014 death due to diabetes is 4.9 million also there is every 7 seconds one person dies due to diabetes

The homeopathic approach to treating Diabetes Mellitus
To control and prevention of diabetes mellitus we should give constitutional treatment to the patient with proper dietary, stress, live style management. Dr. Hahnemann as mentioned in `Medicine of experience’ that “… diabetes, pneumonia, phthisis, cancer, &c., and that although a great number of cases of each of these diseases present dissimilar characters, and therefore require a different treatment, yet some cases present so much resemblance among themselves in their symptoms and mode of cure that they should be considered as the same malady. This distinction, however, has not much practical, consequently little real value, for we ought to observe and investigate accurately each case, in order to find out what is the suitable remedy.”
On the basis of homeopathic philosophy diabetes is multi-miasmatic disease but may present with predominance of any one of them Psora or syphilis or sycosis according to their respective symptoms.

Conclusion
Diabetes Mellitus is an iceberg form of disease because there are a lot of cases which are not diagnosed. Morbidity (the rate of disease in a population) and mortality (death) due to diabetes and its potential complications are large, and pose significant healthcare burdens on both families and society. In India, the rural- urban migration pattern, the economic boom, and corresponding change in life-style are all affecting the level of diabetes among populations. So we need more awareness about the disease with improvement of life style, food habit, and addiction. Apart from that by homeopathic medicine we can treat a patient safely, effectively and economically. Homoeopathic treatment not only gives curative effects but also presents a preventive alternative
