How does the liver help to regulate glucose levels in the blood?
When the blood sugar is very high in the body, the pancreas makes a hormone called 'insulin' this hormone tells the liver to take the excess glucose out of the blood. The glucose is stored as glycogen, a type of sugar, in the liver. The glucose in the blood falls to its correct level. Also when we excercise, the muscles in our body use up a lot of glucose. If blood glucose falls, the pancrease makes another hormone 'glucagon'. This tells the liver to convert some glycogen into glucose and put it back into the blood. Glucose in the blood rises to its correct level.
Why do you have to have blood sugar?
Sugar is energy ( to be simple ) . Our body needs energy to do any work . The energy is stored in the form of carbohydrates . So naturally there is a certain level of sugar otherwise called glucose present on the blood. When excess glucose is present the condition is called diabetes !
