What is sugar regulation in man?
831919
It is done with insulin.  The insulin (made by the islets of Langerhan in the pancreas)  allows the Glucose (sugar) to enter the cells.  A biofeedback regulates the amount of insulin released.  When this goes wrong people become diabetic

Whole wheat bread is good, check the label, you are looking for high fiber and low sugar. There are many names for sugar in labels: sucrose, fructose, dextrose, glucose,maltose,lactose. Diabetics need to stay away from those. A normal healthy person should not consume more than 40 grams per day.\nHere is a website how to manage diabetes...\nhttp://www.joslin.org/managing_your_diabetes_707.asp

The pancreas is the organ that contains the Alpha-Islet cells, also more commonly known as the Islets of Langerhans, which secrete insulin which is the enzyme responsible for lowering blood sugar, and beta-islet cells which are responsible for secreting proteins and enzymes responsible for causing the liver to convert stored reserves of glycogen in the liver into glucose to raise the blood sugar level to a normal level if the blood glucose level is below normal.

Normal glucose blood levels vary from person to person, but almost all fall into the range of 90 to 120 mg/dl when fasting. For perhaps 2 hours after a meal, glucose levels rise  to perhaps 140 mg/dl until the meal has been fully digested and absorbed. \n\nGlucose is kept at (or very near) the normal level at all times by arranging for stored glucose (in the liver) to be put into the blood when the level drops and by releasing insulin when blood glucose levels rise which forces most body cells (about 2/3) to absorb glucose from the blood. \n\nIn diabetes, either the the amount of insulin is reduced (loss of production) or body cells become insensitive to it. Or both in some cases. The result is more glucose left in the blood than normal, and that is the characteristic (and diagnostic) sign of diabetes (either Type).

Negative feedback within homeostatic processes.\nGood examples to explain the process of negative feedback is the control of the menstrual cycle and the regulation of blood glucose levels .

Basically, you don't have enough glucose in your body to function adequately. Consider adding small amounts of fresh fruit to your lunches; fruit is good source of glucose without the fat or high calories you'd get from other stuff, like candy bars. \n\nDefinitely bring this up with your doctor. She should be able to tell you how to manage your diet better or if there is something else wrong.

"Sweetness" is a brain interpretation of a specific signal, just like pain and pleasure- They are not physical objects that can be measured precisely, because they are subjective sensations.  One measures sweetness by tasting it, or having a population of people taste it, and rate it-you can't chemically analyze the sweetness of something (any more than you can chemically analyze pain in the absence of a person's interpretation of it).  So, since sweetness is a specific signal, generated by activation of specific receptors on specific taste receptors in the tongue, and analyzed by specific regions of the brain, there are a number of biological limitations based on what generates it.  So, number of "sweet" receptors on the taste buds, the number of specific taste buds that contain these receptors, the number of neurons that interpret the signal "sweet", would all be limiting factors.

ask your phsician to check "fasting glusose level"\n\nI'm not an m.d., but used to have "hypoglycemia"

donot eat too much sweet infront of him (if male) \ndonot eat too much bulky food infront of him at one time\ndonot eat too much food rich in carbohydrates specially consisting of simple sugars\ndonot drink too much fruit in front of him\ndonot drink simple sugar (glucose, flavoured glucose)infront of him\ntry to be patient if he awakes two to three times in a night for peeing (it will not happen that often)but you have to be considerate.\nkeep some sweet along you always and give him some if he feels sweaty, lethargic , abnormally sleepy, anorexic or dizzy.\nkeeping glucometer along with ample gluco-strips is mandatory.\nmonthly serum fasting glucose level has to be done.(to see the efficasy of the drugs).\ntype 2 initially can be resolved just with diet and exercise, if not then drugs (which may be a single , or combinations of upto three drugs upto three times daily).\n\nthough sexually wont affect initially , therefore one has to play carefully especially with the mind (more psycologically)\n\nin the end of if he is  unable to control himself to type-II, then No doubt there will be need of Insulin injection lately, and living with that perosn is a little more tricker than living with type2 diabetes , though not difficult too.

Great question - there is intense scientific interest in this issue, however the answer is unknown.  \n\nDiabetes is an disease in which the body fails to regulate blood glucose.  Often, Beta cells (located in the pancreas) fail to produce insulin, a hormone that is required for this process.  This can be caused by dysfunction of the beta cells, but more commonly it is the result of an autoimmune disease where the body's own T cells destroy the beta cells.  Normally, the body regulates the activity of self-reactive T cells to prevent this sort of outcome, so the defect in diabetes and other auto-immune diseases is most likely at the level of regulation, not activity, of these T cells.\n\nRecent scientific data indicates that CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cells (T-regs) are an important component of the body's natural immune dampening mechanism, and these cells appear to be essential for limiting auto-immunity in several mouse models as well as in human disease.  The mechanisms of Treg function are only now becoming understood, and include expression of surface CTLA4 and secretion of TGF-beta and IL-10 - each of which seems to dampen CD8 T cell cytolytic activities.  Which of these functions is required in general for Treg activity, or for the case of diabetes specifically, is not known.  Based on current understanding, it is likely that the inability of CD4+ Tregs to control self-reactive CD8 T cells is a major factor involved in diabetes and other auto-immune syndromes.

I have the same problem . I recently found out that my sugar is a lot of my problem. I am controling my sugar with diet. Seek advice from your doctor about this "problem" you are having!

In medical school, they never told us that eating too much sugar brings on diabetes, but I do think there is some truth to what you say, that eating alot of sugar contributes to causing Type II diabetes.  (Right, type I diabetes, which is very severe insulin dependent diabetes, is caused by failure of the insulin producing pancreatic beta cells.  it isn't dietary at all)  In type II diabetes, your pancreas is still producing insulin, it just gets "tired" and isn't producing enough insulin, and/or the cell receptors for the insulin, where the insulin has to do its thing, get resistant to the insulin.  In a sense, you wear the system out eating too much sugar.  Also, many type II diabetics are too fat.  Getting too fat does something to make the insulin receptors resistant, and also causes a huge demand for more and more insulin.  Certainly eating alot of "sweet" foods contributes to being fat.  Also, chromium is a known cofactor required for insulin to act correctly.  Refined sugar has no chromium in it, neither does refined flour.  (whole wheat flour does have chromium in it).  So you are eating sugar and refined flour, which requires insulin and chromium to metabolize, but you aren't getting any chromium with it.  \n\nWhat does "junk food" have in it?  It is all high in sugar and/or refined flour.  I think these are the modern foods, which contribute to poor health, including diabetes.  Also these junk foods are high in fat, esp. the evil trans fat.

Firstly, it should be done by a healthcare professional...either a doctor or a diabetic nurse.  It is calculated based on individual response. So it is really a guess game. You give some insulin, see what a sugar value is in several hours and adjust based on that.  After several days, you arrive at a reasonable dose.  Hope this helps, but don't try this on your own :).
