The cells and tissue respond more slowly, resulting in higher glucose levels circulating in the blood for longer, which triggers the release
of more insulin.
The glucose, like all of the nutrients, soon gets absorbed into the bloodstream creating a peak in what we call «blood sugar levels», which results with the releasing
of more insulin from the pancreas in order to push glucose to the cells, basically «commanding» the cells to open up and absorb it, where it gets used as an energy source.
