Insulin in Blood — The Antagonists

  • Chapter

  • 54 Accesses

Abstract

When considering the mechanisms concerned in the regulation of the blood glucose level, it becomes apparent that whereas only exercise or insulin will lower blood sugar there are a variety of factors and hormones which can raise the blood sugar level or oppose the action of insulin.
