Understanding Insulin - Post Prandial in Pune


What is Insulin - Post Prandial in Pune?

Insulin - Post Prandial, also known as the 2-hour postprandial/2-hour PPG sugar test, is available in Pune with Tata 1mg labs at an affordable price. It measures the level of insulin, a hormone secreted by the beta cells of the pancreas, in the blood two hours after having a meal. This test can help in the timely detection of diabetes, thus preventing diabetes-associated complications such as nerve damage, vision problems, heart disease, chronic kidney disease, etc. It also aids in monitoring the progress of individuals undergoing diabetes treatment. Furthermore, regular monitoring with Insulin - Post Prandial can provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of treatment methods in individuals with diabetes, allowing the doctor to make necessary adjustments to medications or lifestyles.

What does Insulin - Post Prandial measure?

An Insulin - Post Prandial test evaluates the amount of insulin in your blood, particularly 2 hours after having food, which helps in regulating glucose levels.

Normally after eating, the stomach digests the food, and glucose levels rise rapidly. In response to this, the pancreas releases insulin that helps in moving the glucose from the blood into the cells for the production of energy. If a person has diabetes, it means their body is unable to make sufficient insulin to keep blood sugar in check. This can lead to high sugar levels in the blood which can further cause serious health problems related to the heart, kidneys, eyes, nerves, etc. Ideally within two hours of having a meal, the insulin and blood glucose levels should return to normal. In case, the blood glucose still remains high, there are chances that the person might have diabetes.
