The Five Hormone

The five hormone's that play a role in regulation of glucose metabolism are Insulin, Glucagon, Epinephrine, norepinephrine, and cortisol. Insulin is located in the pancreas and the action of insulin is remarkable and also not as complex as most people would think. Glucose is taken up by a muscle that is at rest, which in turn regulates blood glucose concentration. This process isn't difficult to understand because it isn't as many parts to the process. Glucagon also finds itself located in the pancreas along side insulin. The action of glucagon is that it causes glycogen to be broken down and that results in glucose being released into the blood, which also is a complex situation that is not hard to understand due to it not having many steps.
