जब हम कार्बोहाइड्रेट से युक्त खाद्य पदार्थों का सेवन करते हैं, तो यही हमारे शरीर में ऊर्जा में बदलता है. जिसे ग्लूकोज कहा जाता है. अब इस ऊर्जा को हमारे शरीर की लाखों कोशिकाओं में पहुंचाना होता है. जिससे कोशिकाएं ग्लूकोज को जलाकर शरीर को ऊर्जा पहुंचाने का काम करते हैं. यह तभी हो सकता है जब हमारा अग्नाशय पर्याप्त मात्रा में इंसुलिन का निर्माण करे. इंसुलिन दरअसल एक हार्मोन है जो हमारे शरीर में कार्बोहाइड्रेट और वसा की मात्रा को नियंत्रित करता है. बिना इंसुलिन के ग्लूकोज हमारे शरीर की कोशिकाओं में प...more
