The study is administered on a sample consists of (31) male/female children, aged (7-12 year olds) with weights range from (13-54 keg.) from some civil societies. The researchers come to several results as follows: The proposed program proves its efficacy for being low-cost for developing awareness among mothers and children. There is a significant difference between the good program for the diabetic person’s nutrition regarding carbohydrates and protein pre/post application of the program.
