Question

Careplan for a non insulin dependent diabeti. patient with theory application

Answer 1

Insulin is secreted by beta cells in the pancreas and it is an anabolic hormone.

When we consume food, insulin moves glucose from blood to muscle, liver, and fat cells as insulin level increases.

The functions of insulin include the transport and metabolism of glucose for energy, stimulation of storage of glucose in the liver and muscle, serves as the signal of the liver to stop releasing glucose, enhancement of the storage of dietary fat in adipose tissue, and acceleration of the transport of amino acid into cells.

Insulin and glucagon maintain a constant level of glucose in the blood by stimulating the release of glucose from the liver.
