Energy, AMPK, and Insulin: How the Body Controls Sugar
The body regulates blood sugar not just through insulin, but through cellular energy sensing. When AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is activated, cells use glucose more efficiently, the liver reduces excess sugar production, and stored fat begins to be used for energy. This improves insulin sensitivity, supports metabolic balance, and makes AMPK activation a key mechanism in both blood sugar control and sustainable weight loss.
