Insulin refers to a hormone that is made by the pancreas. The pancreas can
automatically generate enough amount of insulin after people eating. Then,
insulin will mover the blood sugar into the cells, and lower the levels of blood
sugar.
In Diabetes, the body either does not produce enough insulin, produce no
insulin, or has cells that do not response properly to the insulin. As a result,
there is too much glucose building up in the blood. The excessive blood glucose
will be excreted out of the body through urine. Therefore, although there is
plenty of blood glucose, the cells cannot get it.
Normally, when the cells do not get enough glucose, or blood sugar, they will
send a "message" to the brain that they need glucose (food) and it may need as
much as people can give them. How will the body express the need for glucose?
