Question

People with diabetes often receive insulin injections. What effect does insulin have on the body?

Answer 1

Insulin injection is used to control blood sugar in people who have type 1 diabetes (condition in which the body does not make insulin and therefore cannot control the amount of sugar in the blood) or in people who have type 2 diabetes (condition in which the blood sugar is too high because the body does not produce or use insulin normally) that cannot be controlled with oral medications alone. Insulin injection is in a class of medications called hormones. Insulin injection is used to take the place of insulin that is normally produced by the body. It works by helping move sugar from the blood into other body tissues where it is used for energy. It also stops the liver from producing more sugar. All of the types of insulin that are available work in this way. The types of insulin differ only in how quickly they begin to work and how long they continue to control blood sugar

Answer 2

Answer:

Insulin is a polypeptide hormone that are released from the beta cells of the pancreas. Insulin regulates the metabolism of carbohydrate and proteins in the body. The insulin regulates the blood glucose level.

Deficiency of insulin causes diabetes in the individual and needs insulin injection. The insulin injection maintains the blood glucose level. The insulin injections helps the movement of sugar molecules from the blood to the appropriate organs for the storage and hence reduces the blood glucose level. This insulin also inhibits the formation of sugar in the liver and improves the health of ab individual.
