Insulin levels can be increased by taking exogenous insulin as a medication injected under the skin and absorbed into the bloodstream. Insulin deficiency usually occurs in Type 1 (juvenile) Diabetes that starts at a young age (children, teens, young adults). Type 2 diabetics (onset in adulthood) usually have high insulin levels, but the insulin does not work effectively to get sugar to move from the blood into the cells. These people need to increase the effectiveness of the insulin they produce at the cell level, and there are medications (oral) that can help with this. The overall need for insulin can be reduced by reducing sugars in the diet and reducing one's body weight. Exercise helps insulin be utilized more effectively as well.
