The insulin hormone controls the metabolism of sugar. When pancreas does not produce or secrete sufficient amount of insulin into blood, then the sugar level in the blood rises. Therefore, the patient excretes sugar (glucose) in urine, feels excessive thirst and also urinates excessively. The people having severe diabetes are treated by giving injections of insulin.

Insulin is a hormone secreted by pancreas that regulates the sugar level in the blood. When this hormone is not synthesised in proper amount then the sugar level in the blood rises and the persons suffer from diabetes. This is the reason why diabetic patients are treated by giving injections of insulin.
