Insulin cannot be taken by mouth because it is digestible. Oral insulin would be obliterated in the stomach, long before it reached the bloodstream where it is needed. Once injected, it starts to work and is used up in a matter of hours.

Answer:
Insulin is a hormone, normally produced in sufficient amounts by the healthy human pancreas. Its role is to facilitate the final digestion of glucose by the human body. When insulin is lacking (diabetes), glucose remains undigested in the blood. The body isn't being fed, and the high blood sugar can cause damage, the ramifications of diabetes.
