Player #158499, just cause we aren't in the medical field does not mean we are all dumb.... I did not get this correct but love learning these things!! Don't know about everyone else but i play these games to learn all this stuff!!! You're lucky you already do!!!

My grandson was diagnosed at 4 with type 1 diabetes. He is 6 now but it's been a scary road and we all have to pay close attention every hour of every day to keep him alive. This was an awesome answer to this question. Love this game, always learning new things :)

I don’t think the non medical field public should be underestimated. For one, if you like this game, you’re interested in factual information. Second, I’m an LVN and even my children know the human body very well.

Player #2160135, yes, but at 62 I've forgotten a lot of what I once knew.

In case no one else pointed it out: once glucose gets into cells it is only built (anabolized) into glycogen or fat IF the cell does not need it for energy. If the cells needs energy the glucose is immediately broken down (catabolized) for the energy!

I have been hospitalized with pancreatitis three times, in the past couple of years. I think I'm lucky that my blood glucose levels are normal, so far no chance of contracting diabetes

This was easy for me, a type 1 diabetic. My body produces absolutely no insulin.
Player Eeyore
I had better have gotten it correct. I'm a former RN and a Type II diabetic. It's nice to have an easy one accasionally.

I read all that glucose stuff in the article and I didn’t understand most of it. But, boy is it important and complicated. We need insulin period. It’s created by the pancreas. Pancreatic cancer is the leading cause of cancer death. The End.

Although I knew the answer, my brain just couldn't come up with it. Brain fog, I guess. I felt a little silly at seeing the answer.
For all diabetics, you are in my prayers. I'm working hard to keep my body in the pre-diabetic stage.

lynsey, Type 2 diabetes can be control with diet and exercises. Try cutting down on simple carbs,

AwesomeAnnie7, (1) I'm sorry to hear of memory loss. (2) I'm 65 and have memory, recall and confusion issues... so you've made me feel better and more normal. (3) May you, me and others in umm... err.... older midlife, enjoy good health - including good (enough) memory! ;-)
