Insulin is used to convert the sugar or carbohydrates that we consume into energy. Just like a lamp needs to be plugged in to turn on, our bodies need energy to move or breathe or even think. If we do not have insulin to convert the carbs into energy our bodies will start to extract the energy it needs from the extra fat it stores. This is what ketones are feeding on it own organs and muscles to get the energy that it needs. This causes ketones to accumulate in your bloodstream. ketones cause acidity in your body , which will upset the body's chemical balance. This can lead to the development of a life-threatening condition called ketoacidosis. If you still cannot create energy for you body it will start feeding off of its own organs and muscles. Eventually this process will lead to death. I know that is a harsh explanation and not a medical or perfect one at that but its the best I can understand it and I have been studying it for 6 years..... .
When there is not enough insulin produced or when the doorway no longer recognizes the insulin key, glucose stays in the blood rather entering the cells.
cells don't absorb enough glucose and the blood sugar is high
it does not function right.it can become very insolated to the air.
What occurs is that I eat pasta a lot and my parents make fun of me for it.
You inject it!
diabetes
If your body does not produce or properly use insulin you may be diagnosed with Diabetes.
type 1 diabetes is when your pancreas does not make enough insulin.
immune
In Type II diabetes, the pancreas may produce enough insulin, however, cells have become resistant to the insulin produced and it may not work as effectively
Pancreas
Type 2 diabetes is when the body is not able to produce enough insulin or the body's cells are not able to take up insulin. Insulin is a substance that is produced when blood sugar level rises to take sugar into our cells. Blood sugar levels rise when body breaks down food into glucose to produce energy that allows us to live our days. However, with type two diabetes since it is either not producing enough insulin or the cells are not taking up the insulin it creates a giant build up of glucose within the body and that can lead to problems with your eyes, kidneys, nerves or heart.
Diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes which develops in children and adolescents is most commonly known as juvenile diabetes. It is also known as "insulin-dependent diabetes". It occurs as a result of the body not being able to produce enough insulin required for its day-to-day activities. It reduces the body's ability to fight bacteria and virus.. As a result, children affected by it fall sick often and develop complications.
because there is too much sugar in the blood
!:)- diabetes
Body part that should produce insulin: pancreas
This question consists of two separate sections. The insulin made in a person's body may become less effective if a phenomenon known as insulin resistance develops. Genetic and environmental factors interact to make insulin less effective at the level of the cell membrane, so that excess fats and sugars in the blood are not used appropriately. The body's first response to insulin resistance is to produce more insulin in specialized areas of the pancreas known as beta cells. Over time, beta cells become less able to produce insulin, and blood sugars may continue to rise.
