Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition in which the body cannot produce or use insulin effectively, causing high blood sugar levels. Non-pharmacological therapy is one option to prevent and treat diabetes mellitus, for example "Diabetes Diet." Diabetes diet can be done by regulating carbohydrate intake, increasing consumption of fruits and vegetables, avoiding foods high in sugar, and maintaining an active lifestyle. The purpose of this community service is to provide health promotion related to diabetes mellitus and diabetes diet so that the community understands how to treat and prevent diabetes. The method of implementing health promotion is carried out using two techniques: 1) Delivery of material, 2) Demonstration related to diabetes diet.
