Only aged male patients (N=30) were selected as subjects for this study and age ranged from 45 to 55 years. The fasting blood glucose level was measured for the measurement of these glucose levels to the nearest mg/dl. Carol Ryff psychological well-being questionnaire was used for measuring the psychological well-being. Co- ef?cient correlation method was applied to investigate the relationship of depression with blood glucose levels. The results of this study suggest that there is a negative relationship between blood glucose level and the psychological well-being at 0.05 level of con?dence.
