Is 160 glucose level dangerous after meal
No, that's perfect for BGL's (Blood Glucose Levels). We are more concerned If your glucose levels stay above 130, two hours after a meal.
does the process glycogenesis occur in the body after a meal?
After a meal, excess glucose is stored in the liver and muscles as glycogen for later use as energy.
Amylase which is secreted by the salivary glands.
After a meal, glucose levels rise. This causes the pancreas to excrete insulin. Insulin causes cells in the liver, fat, and muscle tissue to take up glucose and store it as glycogen. This makes the blood glucose levels decrease again to a normal rate.
The more fiber a meal contains the more it will dilute the gastrointestinal contents. This dilution will slow down the digestion/absorption of the stomach contents in return delaying the rise in blood glucose.More fiber - less of a glucose spikeLess fiber- more of a spike in glucose
Yes, after a meal, especially one rich in carbohydrates, the blood glucose levels typically rise due to the digestion and absorption of glucose from the food. This increase in blood glucose is often reflected in a tube of blood drawn for testing, indicating higher glucose concentrations. The body usually responds by releasing insulin to help lower blood glucose levels back to a normal range.

During fasting the glucose is relaesed from intracellular glycogen stores in the liver (produced by glucogenolysis). After a meal blood glucose is acquired from the diet.
