How does my body control sugar levels with the hormone insulin?

Glucose is a sugar needed by cells for respiration. It is important that the concentration of glucose in the blood is maintained at a constant level. (BBC Bitsize)

What would happen to your blood glucose levels?

You wouldn’t have respiration to keep the blood at its constant level and wouldn’t be able to detect sugars.

What might happen to your weight?

You will lose weight because your body can’t detect any sugars and your body will begin to shut down.

How would someone with an especially sugary diet be affected?

Your blood level will drop really quickly and your body will shut down faster.

Mum and Dad
You may have already noticed but for a long time now I have been working REALLY hard. Many of the popular people in school are starting to get cars, and I was hoping I could get one. Do you really want your child to be unpopular? You know how responsible I am. A cool car I’ve been looking at for a while now is the Audi R8. This vehicle may be abit expensive, but can you really put a price on your child’s happiness?
