Diabetes is a chronic disease and a major public health concern all over the world, even when made feasible to learn about the root cause of the disease by awareness along with the methods of prevention. This study introduces a mathematical deterministic model that describes the progression of type 2 diabetes, integrating a component of awareness and a saturation treatment function named Holling type II. The presented work investigates and numerically analyzes the impact of various treatment strategies, such as consistent physical activity, a healthy diet, access to medical services, and the efficacy of treatments. The research findings indicate that the use of Holling type II treatment functions can prevent minor and major complications related to diabetes.
