Researchers have identified a group of glucose-sensing neurons in the ventrolateral area of the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus and discovered how they work together to prevent hypoglycemia in mice.
Researchers report the brain is able to convert glucose into fructose.
A new study shows how the microbiome communicates with cells producing serotonin to influence blood sugar levels. The microbiome can worsen metabolism by signaling to cells in the gut that produce serotonin. This drives up serotonin levels. The rise in blood serotonin levels causes metabolic problems.
Researchers report brown fat may also help to keep blood sugar in check in healthy adults.
A new study reveals people who experience larger dips in blood sugar hours after eating end up feeling hungrier and eat hundreds of more calories a day than those who experience lower blood sugar dips.
Diabetes and high blood sugar appears to lower a person's risk of developing glioma brain cancer, a new study suggests.
According to researchers, feeling 'hangry' may be more than just a drop in blood sugar levels. A new study reports anger related to hunger may be an emotional response to environmental cues, personality and your biology.
Researchers report on how a cluster of neurons in the hippocampus may directly regulate metabolism.
Increasing blood sugar levels in those over 60 helps improve memory and performance, a new study reports.
A new study reports diabetics who experience high rates of complications also have an increased risk of developing dementia.
Reducing glucose levels may mitigate the blood sugar associated blunting of the aerobic response, a new study reports.
Researchers have discovered a mechanism of glucose sensing by muscles that contribute to the regulation of blood sugar levels in the body.
