One of the non-medical therapies that can be given to patients with diabetes mellitus is giving dragon fruit, apples and papayas.</em> <em>This </em><em>purpose of this study to see how </em><em>giving dragon fruit, apple and papaya juice </em><em>affects </em><em>blood glucose levels in</em> <em>type 2</em><em> diabetes </em><em>patients</em><em>.
