Abstract

Obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are public health issues that have caused worry across the world due to their health repercussions and economic costs. Diabetes is becoming more common at the same time that obesity is becoming more common. This twin pandemic has been dubbed "diabesity" by some specialists. T2DM was linked to an increased body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). Obesity has been linked to a higher risk of acquiring T2DM. Prenatal, early childhood, and teenage phases are all thought to be important in the development of obesity. Free fatty acids (FFA) are known to produce peripheral (muscle) insulin resistance, and most obese people have high plasma levels of them.
