Insulin reduces the amount of sugar in your bloodstream to an acceptable level, and glucagon raises the amount of sugar in your bloodstream to an acceptable level. Glycogen is a stored type of the sugar, Glucose, that can readily be added to the bloodstream by glucagon.
The pancreas secretes glucagon to raise blood glucose levels. Glucagon acts on the liver to break down glycogen into glucose, which is then released into the bloodstream to increase blood sugar levels.
When blood glucose levels rise, the pancreas secretes insulin, which helps cells take up glucose from the blood, lowering blood glucose levels. When blood glucose levels are low, the pancreas secretes glucagon, which stimulates the liver to release stored glucose into the bloodstream, raising blood glucose levels back to normal.

The pancreas has cells which produce insulin. Insulin allows the body's cells to absorb glucose from the bloodstream. Diabetes is an auto-immune disease which destroys the insulin producing cells in the pancreas.

This is fatal if untreated. NB: there are 2 main types of diabetes. Type 1, or juvenile diabetes, is of unknown origin and requires regular injections of insulin.
