Good to know

Glucose is the body's most basic source of energy

  • When glucose is high

    Insulin

  • When glucose is low

    Glucagon

The concentration of glucose in the blood is called blood glucose. It is kept within a steady range by two hormones produced in the pancreas: insulin and glucagon.

Factors that work against healthy blood glucose

  • Overeating
  • Lack of exercise
  • Excess weight
  • Foods high in sugar
  • Medication
  • Foods high in animal fat
  • Stress

Simple sugars that are absorbed quickly — such as fruit, sugar, honey and soft drinks — raise blood glucose sharply.
