What is Understanding Insulin about?
Insulin is a peptide hormone produced by beta cells in the pancreas that regulates carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism by promoting glucose absorption into cells. It is an anabolic hormone that converts glucose into glycogen or fats, while low insulin levels promote catabolism. Insulin secretion is closely linked to blood sugar levels, with glucagon secreted by alpha cells to increase blood glucose when levels are low.
