Abstract: 
The purpose of this review paper is to investigate the function of new technology in dieting and diabetic care. The paper specifically discusses wearable devices, artificial intelligence, telemedicine, virtual and augmented reality, smart insulin pens and pumps, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, social media, mobile apps, and sensors, as well as their benefits and limitations in diabetes management. Wearable glucose monitoring gadgets, smart insulin pens and pumps, and IoT devices for monitoring and managing food intake and blood sugar levels have all demonstrated encouraging results in diabetes care. Artificial intelligence and machine learning have the ability to help diabetic patients with individualized nutrition suggestions. Telemedicine and remote monitoring have aided in diabetes education and self-management skill training. These technologies, however, have drawbacks such as high costs, limited accessibility, and worries about data privacy and security. Overall, this research emphasizes the significance of modern technology in diabetes care and delves into its potential benefits and drawbacks.
