Blood sugar - Glucose |
||||||
The blood sugar level is a very important blood value in terms of metabolism. Blood sugar rises after every high-carbohydrate meal and is lowered again through exercise and with the help of the hormone insulin, among other things. The blood sugar level is therefore not a fixed value, but varies depending on the time of day and the meals eaten. If blood sugar is high even when fasting, there may be a metabolism disorder, such as insulin resistance or possibly even diabetes. If the blood sugar level is very low, there may be reactive hypoglycaemia or even diabetes. A disease of the sugar metabolism can lead, among other things, to increased abdominal growth. Too much internal abdominal fat can also cause a sugar metabolism disorder. If blood glucose levels deviate from normal values, a more thorough examination should be carried out by a doctor.
