The book "Diabetes Mellitus in Unani Medicine: An Integrative Approach" by Dr. Bushra Shaikh, Prof.Ghulamuddin Sofi, and Dr. Shariq-ur-Shaikh explores the management of diabetes mellitus through the lens of Unani medicine, an ancient Greco-Arabic medical system.

The book bridges traditional Unani principles with modern scientific research, offering insights into dietary modifications, lifestyle changes, herbal remedies, and therapeutic procedures for managing diabetes. It highlights the efficacy of Unani interventions, such as cinnamon, fenugreek, and bitter melon, in improving glycemic control. Additionally, it critically evaluates the integration of Unani practices with contemporary medical approaches to provide a comprehensive framework for diabetes care.

This work serves as both an educational resource for healthcare professionals and a guide for individuals seeking holistic solutions to diabetes management. It emphasizes the relevance of ancient wisdom in addressing modern health challenges while fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.
