glucagon and insulin are responsible for regulating glucose levels in normal circumstances glucagon promotes glycogen breakdown into glucose for energy insulin promotes glucose storage as glycogen however in times of danger adrenaline also affects glucose levels as it promotes significantly glycogen breakdown into glucose for extra energy
Glucose levels
The term used when a person has high levels of glucose circulating in the blood is Hyperglycemia. For someone who has low levels of glucose the term is Hypoglycemia.Hyperglycemia- The term used when blood glucose levels are too high.Hypoglycemia- The term used when blood glucose levels are too low.The general term for a rapid loss or gain of glucose is 'glucose shock.'A fasting blood glucose level above 126 milligrams per deciliter is considered hyperglycemic. A blood glucose level of below 50 milligrams per deciliter is considered hypoglycemic.
Glucose is sugar and you need it in your body(blood) to keep you running which is why we say blood sugar levels and if you are diabetic your blood sugar levels are wrong
Liver
Renal threshold is what happens when there is an overabundance of glucose in the body, the blood glucose levels will then get above 170mg/100ml (normal is 70mg/100ml).
High glucose levels can and often do result in diabetes. It usually happens to those with obesity and can be avoided with a healthy balanced diet and regular exercise.
The kidneys may excrete glucose in the urine. very high blood glucose levels can damage almost every system and cell in the body, including the coronary artery. In other terms, Diabetes can occur.

Glucagon is the hormone that raises blood glucose levels.
Glucagon is catabolic and increases blood glucose levels, insulin is anabolic decreases blood glucose levels.
Insulin
Cortisol release can increase blood glucose levels.
Insuline and Glucagon control blood glucose. Insuline: brings down high levels of glucose. Glucagon: brings glucose levels back to normal, (brings glucose levels up).
Fasting affects glucose levels by reducing below what might be considered normal levels. It is safe as long as blood glucose levels do not drop below around 60 milligrams.
Glucose levels are different for different times. There are 3 glucose tests that are given. One is a fasting test, where your glucose levels are tested after fasting. Normal fasting blood glucose level is less than 100 mg of glucose per dl of blood.
When you eat glucose tablets your pancreas responds to this peak in blood sugar levels by stopping the release of glycogen and releasing insulin which makes the blood dissolve the glucose which results in you going back to your normal blood sugar levels. by Tapiwa Kadzviti xxx Hope it helped :)
