Without proper insulin levels, our cells are unable to absorb glucose or amino acids from the bloodstream, and this is life threatening

Milk and Insulin

protein and carbohydrates and insulin release.

sugar (carbohydrate) or glucose raises insulin, protein can do it, too

When there is more sugar in the bloodstream than is required for cellular needs, insulin will store that sugar in the liver, mostly as triglyc

When glucose levels in the blood become elevated, insulin transports the glucose out of the bloodstream and into cells for storage.

FOOD LABELS IN AMERICA

The instant-oatmeal group ate substantially more calories (1,400 calories) compared to the steel-cut oats group (900 calories) and omelet-with-fruit group (750 calories).
