What does insulin have to do with my diet?
A lot actually, when you eat your sugar levels rise in your body.
Without insulin your cells don’t grab that sugar as it runs through
the blood stream. Insulin activates those cells and tells them
“hey the sugar is coming”.
Without insulin the cells don’t know to absorb the sugar in your
blood and would essentially starve.
Insulin is secreted from the pancreas and enters the blood stream,
and then the cells receive their orders to absorb sugar out of the
blood stream.
Your body wants to keep its blood sugar levels in a very specific
range. Insulin makes your cells go to work absorbing the sugar
which brings your blood sugar into a normal range. A normal
range is between 70 and 110 milligrams per 100 milliliters of blood.
Most people think of diabetes when talking about insulin. Insulin
injections are required when the body does not create enough
insulin to activate the cells in your body to absorb the sugar in
your blood.
Make it a great day!
