Core Tip

Core Tip: The use of music intervention has been found effective in treating a wide range of health issues. This study demonstrates that music intervention is impactful in the management of diabetic conditions through reduction in blood sugar, heart rate, glucose level, and stress. These symptoms have been widely associated with diabetic conditions among patients. It is imperative to further examine the significant effects of music intervention in curtailing these symptoms through the selection of specific music that reduces these specific symptoms in diabetics.
