Objectives: (1) To assess the level of knowledge regarding the use of drumstick leaves in prevention of diabetes mellitus among adults in rural areas, (2) To evaluate the effectiveness of the video assisted teaching programme, (3) To find out association between pre-test knowledge and selected demographic variables.
Method: A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was used. A sample of 60 adults was selected using convenient sampling. Data was collected using a structured knowledge questionnaire.
Results: The mean post-test knowledge score (16.48) was significantly higher than the mean pre-test score (10.2), with a paired t-value of 16.95 (p<0.05).
