The osmotic effect of glucose produces these classic manifestations.
What are polydipsia and polyuria?
500
The average amount of insulin secreted daily by an adult

This occurs because the body cannot get glucose and turns to other energy sources, such as fat and protein.

Process of catabolism or break-down of glycogen to release stored glucose.
What is glycogenolysis
