As one of the diseases that is dangerous enough to get the nickname The Silent Killer.
Hypertension or commonly known as high blood pressure really needs to get the attention of every individual (Purnamasari & Meutia, 2.

Diabetes mellitus is a disease characterized by high blood glucose levels because the body cannot release or use insulin closely (Alam et al.

The lecturer is a professional educator and also a scientist.
