Blood sugar levels, also known as blood glucose levels, refer to the amount of glucose present in the blood. Glucose is the primary source of energy for the body's cells, and blood sugar levels are regulated by the hormone insulin, which is produced by the pancreas. Abnormal blood sugar levels can lead to a variety of health problems, including diabetes, heart disease, and nerve damage. Monitoring blood sugar levels is important for individuals with diabetes and can be done using a blood glucose meter or continuous glucose monitoring system.
