More than 450 million people worldwide are suffering from diabetes and this number is expected to increase. In developing countries, such as Tanzania, the number of patients suffering from diabetes and associated diseases is increasing as well. Up to 80% of the Tanzanian people rely on traditional medicines for their health care services. The nature of Tanzanian is very rich in different plant and insect species, and this could be exploited through their implementation in preventive and/or curative approaches in the battle against diabetes. The implementation of healthy insects in the diets of people may help in the prevention of obesity, which is a risk factor in the etiology of diabetes, while the identification of small molecules in insects may help in the discovery of potential new drugs that can be used in the treatment of diabetes. In this paper, an overview on the potential implementation of insects against diabetes is presented.
