Sentences with phrase «sugars into our body cells»

Not exact matches

Loosing weight is a very important for diabetics, because fat cells reduce your body's ability to move sugar into cells and use it as energy.

Insulin is secreted by the pancreas, and is responsible for carrying sugar into the cells of the body where it can be used for energy.

Their bodies produce no insulin, the hormone that regulates blood sugar levels, so their cells can not absorb any glucose from the blood and have to tap into another energy source: fat reserves.

Although electrolyte leakage is still undesired, its danger is minimized by the use of either the normal saline solution pumped into the body in most IV treatments or a cell - culture medium that contains amino acids, sugars, and vitamins in addition to sodium ions and thus mimics the fluid that surrounds human cells.

One of the simplest amino acids in terms of molecular structure, alanine helps the body convert the simple sugar glucose into energy and eliminate toxins from the body, and it also protects cells from damage caused by intense aerobic activity.

Its main job is to move the sugar your body makes from the food you eat into your cells so that this excess sugar can be broken down for energy or stored.

The body will release a surge of insulin to shuttle the sugar out of your bloodstream and into the cells (particularly fat cells).

When we eat sugar or carbohydrates our digestive system converts these larger molecules into glucose which is then absorbed into the bloodstream and taken to every cell of the body.

It can help drive glucose into the cells, diminishing the need for the body to release large amounts of insulin, re-sensitizing cells to insulin and lowering blood sugar.

The body thinks you need this amount to get the sugar out of your blood and into your cells in order to sustain your energy to the flight or fight response.

Here is my question (please read the whole thing)... If you are obese, with fat spilling out into your bloodstream constantly (and fat is what «prevents insulin from allowing blood stream sugar into the cell»)-- > Then, if you are obese, and switch to a high carb diet (such as McDougall potato diet) won't the higher carb amount in your body (from the constant increased sugars from the potato diet) create more diabetes?

Insulin resistance occurs when the body's cells become insensitive to the insulin, which is a hormone that is necessary for transport of blood sugar (glucose) into cells.

It's not only essential for ATP synthesis in cells (the process that provides the body with the energy it needs), but also helps transform starches and sugars into energy forms that can be burned off through exercise.

I had thought that the bigger issue was not the fat on the body but the large fat in the meal, as «this fat» is the fat that impairs insulin's ability to get glucose / sugars from foods into the cells.

Once in the cells, the body stores sugar as fat, because any sugar energy not used is converted into fat for later use.

Your body does not want all that sugar hanging around in the bloodstream, so it uses insulin to move it into your body's cells.

Consuming high levels of fructose triggers the body to create more insulin to remove the sugar from the blood and into the body's cells.

Prediabetes and diabetes are characterized by insulin resistance, a condition in which body tissues are unresponsive to insulin and can not move sugar efficiently into cells to fuel normal metabolic processes.

During the night, newly released hormones might increase your body's resistance to insulin, which ultimately impacts your body's ability to absorb sugar into the cells, resulting in high sugar levels in the blood.

This is because when the body is unable to produce insulin (type I diabetics and extreme type II diabetics), it is unable to get sugar or glucose into the cells.

Insulin shunts blood sugar into fat cells and tells them to build and store body fat.

The body wants to move the sugar out of the blood, so it uses insulin to move sugar into the cells.

It helps keep your blood glucose (sugar) low, which would otherwise be toxic to your system, shuttling it off into your body's cells to be used as energy instead.

In response to climbing blood sugar, your body produces insulin from the pancreas, which then puts the blood sugar into your cells.

The faster a food is converted into blood sugar (e.g. with high G.I. foods), the higher the blood sugar levels get and the more insulin is secreted by the pancreas to help the cells of your body absorb the sugar.

Too many sugars and processed carbs cause the body to overproduce insulin, a hormone that escorts glucose into cells and helps regulate high blood sugar.

Insulin's job in your body is to transport sugar from your bloodstream into every cell of your body so that your cells can produce energy and maintain healthy cell function.

«Here's the problem: insulin is the hormone that escorts sugar from your blood stream into the cells of the body.

Your liver destroys old red blood cells, manufactures proteins and blood - clotting agents, manufactures cholesterol, stores glycogen, fats and proteins, converts fats and proteins to carbohydrates and lactic acid to glucose, transforms galactose (milk sugar) into glucose, extracts ammonia from amino acids (proteins), converts ammonia to urea, produces bile, stores fat soluble vitamins, converts adipose fat into ketone bodies, and neutralizes pharmaceuticals and alcohol (14).

Epinephrine is a hormone produced by our adrenals which aims to prevent our body's cells from storing sugar and turning it into fat, and instead gear them towards releasing sugar into the bloodstream.

Because you're on a sugar burning metabolism, your body lacks the ability to convert its own fat cells into energy.

Elevated blood sugar also places a heavy burden on the beta cells of the pancreas to produce high amounts of insulin in an attempt to shuttle the sugar into the body's cells.

Your body responds by making more and more insulin and eventually it will get the sugar into the cells.»

If you have insulin resistance, your body doesn't respond to insulin, and blood sugar can not get into cells.

Our cells are fed by glucose, so our body breaks down our nutrients into sugars.

With type 2 diabetes, your body still produces insulin (a hormone that regulates the absorption of sugar into your cells), but your body has either become resistant to its effects or you can not produce enough insulin to maintain a normal glucose level.

Chronically high or imbalanced levels of blood sugar or «glucose» means your body needs more insulin to allow glucose to get into your cells.

When ingested, carbohydrates cause the body to respond by releasing insulin into the blood stream — a hormone responsible for shuttling the broken down carbohydrates (which break into molecules of sugar) into the cells to be used for energy production (immediate or stored energy depending on what the body needs at the time).

The body then tries to produce more insulin to get the sugar into the resistant cells, and a cycle begins.

Insulin escorts sugar out of the bloodstream and into the body's cells.

Cinnamon helps keep your blood sugar stable by moving glucose into cells faster; this means there is less insulin hanging around (and again, insulin is what tells your body to store fat).

When you eat carbohydrates, your body breaks them down into glucose, which is a simple sugar molecule that your cells process for energy.
