Moreover, it discusses the common traditional method of controlling diabetes using herbs and other methods. It was found that AMT by using medicinal plants are a priority in terms of being cheap, and their accessibility is much less than chemical drugs. However, that there are barriers in developing AMT throughout the world, such as lack of scientific investigation, political barriers, side effects, and socioeconomic barriers.
