This volume is dedicated to glucose homeostasis - the process of maintaining blood glucose at a steady-state level.
This is accomplished by the finely hormone regulation of peripheral glucose uptake (glucose utilization), hepatic glucose production and glucose uptake during carbohydrates ingestion.
