INTRODUCCION
METHODOLOGY
The classification of diabetes mellitus and the
tests used for its diagnosis were brought into order The pancreatic system presents two types of

and the second World Health Organization Expert focuses on the digestion processes with
Committee on Diabetes Mellitus in 1979 and carbohydrates and fat at the time of producing the

The chronic hyperglycemia of diabetes is cells which secrete two fundamental hormones
associated with long-term damage, dysfunction, such as insulin and glucagon, the first is responsible
