A major cause of chronic illness and premature death, diabetes kills one person every ten seconds and claims more lives annually than HIV/AIDS. Data collection techniques vary greatly over the world. Recent research projects that by 2025, the proportion of people with diabetes would rise from 4% in 1995 to 6.4%. An imbalance in energy intake compared to expenditure is the main cause of obesity, and it is this imbalance that results in insulin resistance and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Studies have shown that implementing new lifestyle habits can cut the risk of diabetes by 60%. When long-term calorie restriction is implemented in rhesus monkeys, the incidence of diabetes and prediabetes is greatly reduced. The results and literature analysis have previously demonstrated that people are still ignorant of the symptoms, causes, and indicators of type 1 diabetes, particularly insulin-dependent diabetes. We therefore intended to use a series of twelve questions, written in the vernacular languages of English, Hindi, and Marathi, to assess the patients' knowledge and awareness. Given that the Wardha region is in the middle of the nation and has a diverse population in terms of education, knowledge, lifestyle, and diet, the sample size consisted of 100 patients from various hospitals as well as people who are interested in the area. Before asking the objective-based questions, the doctor's and the patients' consent was obtained. After completing the survey the data was analyzed and it was found that although the patients are aware of few things but most were having some myths and misconceptions. More than half of the people were unaware about the complications, risk factors and their day to day care. So research study revealed that there should be better counseling especially to clear their doubts and myths. As the sample size was less, we can conduct such survey in large number of population from different demographics.
