🏙️ BODY STORIES WITH ROLI — EPISODE 2
Meet the Traffic Police: INSULIN 👮♀️
In Episode 1, we saw glucose trucks enter the bloodstream after a meal. 🚚🚚🚚
But one question remained:
Who tells these trucks where to go?
Meet insulin — the traffic police of your body. 👮♀️
When blood glucose rises, the pancreas releases insulin. Insulin travels through the blood and helps cells take up glucose so it can be used for energy.
And here's the important part:
Insulin isn't the villain. ❤️
It's part of the system helping your body manage glucose and keep the city running smoothly.

More police are sent...
but the doors still don't open properly.
🚨 That's insulin resistance.
And that's our next story.
Save this post if you want to understand insulin without complicated medical language.
