• Serum Irisin, sirtuin-1, Hb A1C, Fasting blood sugar (FBS), Lipid profile, Fasting insulin, HOMA-IR and Atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) will be measured at the beginning and after 12 weeks of intervention.
• Anthro-pometric parameters including Weight and height to calculate body mass index will be measured at the beginning and after intervention.
• past medical history and medication history will be documented.
• Each subject in the test group will receive a total dose of 1000 mg of omega-3 fatty acids per day in the form of three capsules along with a glimepiride tablet to be taken once daily, while each subject in the other group will receive glimepiride tablet to be taken once daily for 12 weeks.
