Diabetes and Metabolism

Diabetes is a metabolic illness in which the body's capacity to release and retain energy from food is harmed. This occurs as a result of issues with insulin synthesis. When a person consumes carbohydrates, the body breaks them down into their most basic form, glucose. This glucose is subsequently absorbed into the bloodstream, where it can provides energy to all of the body's cells. The pancreas usually releases insulin when blood glucose levels are too high. This hormone instructs the liver to take glucose from the bloodstream and convert it to glycogen, which the body can store for later use.On the other hand, Insulin levels in Diabetics fall lower than they should. If left untreated, this results in excessive amounts of glucose in the blood, which can have catastrophic implications..
