In normal metabolism, the elevated blood glucose instructs beta (β) cells in the [[Islets of Langerhans]], located in the [[pancreas]], to release insulin into the blood. The insulin makes insulin-sensitive tissues in the body (primarily skeletal [[muscle]] cells, [[adipose]] tissue, and [[liver]]) absorb [[glucose]] which provides energy as well as lowers blood glucose. The beta cells reduce insulin output as the blood glucose level falls, allowing blood glucose to settle at a constant of approximately 5&nbsp;mmol/L (90&nbsp;mg/dL). In an ''insulin-resistant'' person, normal levels of insulin do not have the same effect in controlling blood glucose levels.</div>FuzzyBot
