Savatey [412]4 years ago

Answer:

Insulin causes hypoglycemia by :

1) Increasing the uptake of glucose from the blood by the liver and muscle.

2) Increase glycogen synthesis by liver and muscle.

3) Increased utilization of glucose by increasing glycolysis.

4) Increased uptake of glucose from the blood by adipose tissue converting it into fats.

Explanation:

Excess insulin or other diabetes medications may cause the blood sugar level to drop too low, causing hypoglycemia. Insulin regulates how the body uses and stores glucose and fat. Insulin decreases the blood sugar levels by increaing their transport in the cells and causing its breakdown too.

Hypoglycemia causes dizziness weakness hunger trembling palpitations. Excess hypoglycemia may damage the brain causing seizures and loss of conciousness.

Blood pressure is considered high of it stays at
kenny6666 [7]
That really depends on your doctor. Some people are high at 140  and others at 130 for the systolic. If you are young, I think 130 is pretty high. If you are older maybe 140 if the point where you should be paying attention. 

For the diastolic 80 is good. 85 is take a note book when you go see a doctor and 90 it's time to be a worry wart.

These are just numbers. Throughout the day, the numbers can vary quite a bit so one bad reading does not make you a candidate for high blood pressure.

If you learn to relax before it is taken, it makes a 10 - 15 point difference on the systolic and don't let people bully you about it.
