Elevated blood glucose level - what does this mean
Elevated blood glucose level occurs when the body is unable to produce enough insulin to regulate the amount of glucose in the bloodstream, or when the body is unable to use the insulin it produces effectively. this can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, lifestyle, medications, and certain medical conditions.
What happens during the disease - elevated blood glucose level
Elevated blood glucose levels, also known as hyperglycemia, is caused by an imbalance between the amount of glucose entering the bloodstream and the amount of glucose leaving the bloodstream. this can be caused by a lack of insulin production in the body, or an increase in the amount of glucose entering the bloodstream due to the consumption of high-sugar foods or drinks. in some cases, it can be caused by certain medications or health conditions.
