The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Diabetes**: - Diabetes mellitus is a condition characterized by high blood glucose levels due to insufficient insulin production or ineffective use of insulin by the body. 2. **Role of Insulin**: - Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that helps lower blood glucose levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose into cells for energy or storage. 3. **Identifying Treatment Options**: - The question presents several treatment options: - A) Growth hormone therapy - B) Increased thyroxin - C) Insulin therapy - D) Both B and C 4. **Evaluating Each Option**: - **Growth Hormone Therapy**: - This is incorrect because growth hormone does not play a role in lowering blood glucose levels. - **Increased Thyroxin**: - This is also incorrect as thyroxin primarily regulates metabolism but does not directly affect blood glucose levels. - **Insulin Therapy**: - This is the correct option as insulin therapy directly addresses the deficiency of insulin in diabetic patients, helping to lower blood glucose levels effectively. 5. **Conclusion**: - The best treatment for diabetic patients is **Insulin Therapy**. Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
