bcos of carbohydrates intake

After eating a meal, your body goes to work quickly to digest the food you have just eaten. During this digestion process, the body converts starches and sugars to glucose, (the sugar that your body uses for fuel). Insulin (a hormone produced in the Pancreas) is used by your body to control the amount of sugar (glucose) in the blood. Without insulin, the sugar cannot get into the blood cells, so it builds up in the blood. If this situation is not treated, the sugar keeps building up in the blood and eventually damages the heart, eyes, kidneys, and blood vessels
