The use of nano-products for the treatment of various diseases has received attention from several fields of medicine. The analysis of the Insulin-Glucose system in diabetes is one of the areas of interest. On the other hand, molecular communication enables nanomachines to communicate with one another by employing messenger molecules. In this paper, we have implemented the effective distance calculation between nanomachines involving molecular communication at threshold concentrations. Our proposed method does not require high number of molecules. Our method overcomes the Round-Trip-Time protocol because an end-to-end communication is not mandatory in effective distance calculation. Our method also overcomes the Cpeak protocol and Signal Attenuation procedures, because we used threshold concentrations that are sufficient for identifying the distance. Our results show that the behavior of effective distance is the same for high, average, and low numbers of molecules in the threshold regions. Hence, an analysis performed for the Insulin-Glucose system is sufficient to proceed with fewer number of molecules. It saves time and energy with bio-nanomachines. As a result, the communication happening between beta cells and the muscle cells in an Insulin-Glucose system can be analysed effectively.
