What does insulin do to blood glucose?

Answer 1

Insulin response comes about from receptor tyrosine kinase. When insulin binds to the alpha portion of the RTK, the receptors dimerize. This results to its beta intracellular portion to autophosphorylate. This creates a binding site for IRS-1. When IRS-1 is activated, it recruits glut-4 receptors, allowing glucose to be taken in from the blood (therefore blood conc. will fall under insulin)

Answer 2

Diabetes

• Glucose is the energy giver in the blood though blood contains some other sugar components like fructose, lactose, galactose etc apart from glucose.

• The blood sugar content should be 80-120mg % with all the other sugar components including glucose(this is the blood test advised by the doctors). Only glucose in the blood should be 80-100mg% (doctors rarely advise this).

• After taking the food if glucose and other sugar components increase in blood, a hormone called insulin brings down their level. Whoever doesn't have this insulin or malfunctioning, the reduction of blood glucose is affected resulting in high glucose in the blood leading to Diabetes.

• To save the body from excess glucose the kidneys release part of it through urine. To compensate the loss of water, one feels thirsty.

• Cells need energy through glucose. Insulin hormone makes the glucose reach the cells. In case malfunctioning of Insulin, cells cannot get glucose, hence no energy resulting in weakness. Weakness is another symptom.

• When glucose couldn't reach the cells, cells are starving resulting in hunger. The patient feels excess of hunger. Excessive hunger is another symptom.

• Glucose is extracted mostly by the carbohydrates. Due to the malfunctioning of insulin hormone, as glucose is not reached to the cells through insulin, the body prepares glucose from proteins and fats leading to Metabolic Disorder.

• How the malfunctioning of insulin hormone occurs? When you take glycemic food intake, you need a measure of glucose, and glucose needs insulin to help it get into cells. If you have been consuming too much high glycemic foods, too much glucose too often will result in the blood, causing the pancreas to produce more insulin that ultimately desensitized the cell gateway that let glucose in, and also burns out the beta cells in the pancreas.

The Stevia herb has been shown to help sensitize the cell gateway again, and stimulate insulin production. When these metabolic processes are being supported, then blood sugar has a chance to stabilize and calm down the system.

Please note: Pure Stevia in its natural powdered dry leaf form green in color has all the healing benefits. The refined Stevia extract white in color will loose most of the healing benefits and not recommended by us.

Organic Stevia leaf powder is better where we can get on eBay as its cheaper & safer.

Answer 3

The person could go into shock if their readings are too hi.

Answer 4

Insulin unlocks cells for glucose to enter and deliver energy to the body.

Answer 5

the body takes up more glucose

Answer 6

It will decrease glucose levels
