What is insulin?

Insulin is a hormone. This is secreted from the beta cell present in our pancreas. We take any meal. Carbohydrate, protein, and fat are entered into the body. Glucose or sugar is one type of carbohydrate. After the breakdown (digestion) of the carbohydrate, it entered into the blood. That's the time insulin start working on carbohydrates to balance the amount of carbohydrate in the blood.
