Glucose intolerance

Glucose intolerance is a condition where the body has difficulty managing blood sugar levels after eating. Normally, when we consume carbohydrates, the body releases insulin to help cells absorb glucose for energy or storage. In glucose intolerance, this process is less effective, causing blood sugar to stay higher than normal. This can be a temporary issue or indicate a risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Factors like weight, activity level, and genetics can influence it. Managing glucose intolerance typically involves lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and monitoring blood sugar levels.
