What does the pancreas produce that helps the body to take in sugar?
Short answer:Insulin.Long answer: Normally, blood glucose levels are tightly controlled by Insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas. Insulin lowers the blood glucose level. When the blood glucose elevates (for example, after eating food), Insulinis released from the pancreas to normalize the glucose level. In patients with diabetes, the absence or insufficient production of Insulin causes hyperglycemia. Diabetes is a chronic medical condition, meaning that although it can be controlled, it lasts a lifetime.
How the assimilation of glucose by a non diabetic person differs from that of a person suffering from diabetes?
It's important to note that there are two types of diabetic people, literally called Type 1 and Type 2. Type 1 diabetics do not produce insulin, while Type 2 diabetics are resistant to insulin. While the reason for it is different, the commonality is that diabetic people effectively lack the insulin that normal people use to regulate their blood sugar levels. For a non-diabetic person, when their blood sugar rises their pancreas secretes insulin to help break down the glucose, and when their blood sugar is low their production of insulin slows. For a diabetic person, this system is malfunctioning, which causes them to either not produce enough insulin or not properly utilize what they have.
Why do you have to have blood sugar?
