Type 2 diabetes mellitus is up to normal metabolic inside the body have been marked by the increased blood sugar rate and involved decreasing body function, hence the effort of decreasing blood sugar rate is needed by diabetic foot exercises therapy. The research aims to find out the influence of diabetic food exercise therapy with lie down position on the change­over blood glucose rate at aged who have suffered type 2 diabetes mellitus in Pagu Village Kediri Regency. The research used a “quasi-experimental study” with data collection techniques of purposive sampling, and the glucometer instrument auto-check brand that gained 32 respondents.
