1. Describe what occurs in the body of a type 1 diabetic after they consume a carbohydrate-heavy meal. In your response, include the following terms
Metabolized, Glucose, Insulin, Cell receptors, Pancreas, Energy​

Respuesta :

The process which would occur in the body of a type 1 diabetic after they consume a carbohydrate-heavy meal is:

  • The digestive system tries to break down the complex sugars which increases the blood sugar level which leads to the production of insulin to maintain the blood sugar level throughout the body.

A Type 1 diabetic person is one who has been diagnosed with the level  of diabetes, where the pancreas does not produce enough insulin to control the sugar levels of the body.

With this in mind, when such person consumes a high carbohydrate meal, it means that he has ingested complex sugars which would be difficult  for the digestive system to break down which would overwork the pancreas, but as there is little or no insulin production, then there would likely be health complications.
