    Imbalanced Nutrition: Less Than Body Requirements

    Due to low insulin levels, glucose cannot enter cells and remains high in the bloodstream. Without insulin to transport glucose into tissues, the body's cells are starved for energy and metabolism is altered. As a result, the body breaks down fat, muscle, and liver tissue for energy, leading to weight loss. However, glucose levels remain high because there is not enough insulin to move it into cells. The tissues are not being fed, causing excessive hunger and thirst as the body attempts to get more glucose for metabolism.

    Imbalanced Nutrition: Less Than Body

    Requirements
    Due to decrease of lack of insulin in the body, the glucose level continuously rises because
    glucose cant be utilized without the presence of insulin. Glucose is the source of energy, while
    insulin is the vehicle to transport glucose to the body tissues. Because of decrease insulin level in
    the blood stream, the cells starved, leading to alteration of metabolism. The body needs glucose
    for metabolism; there will be a breakdown of energy reserved from adipose tissue, muscles and
    liver (glucagons). This will result to weight loss. But the energy breaks down, the glucose level
    continuously increase because there is less amount of insulin. The body tissues need to be fed,
    this will lead to polyphagia and polydipsia because the tissue are not being fed and need glucose
    for metabolism.
