Polypetide Hormones: These are probably one of the most important hormones in your body. They are Insulin and Glucagon.
Insulin is very important to the human body because it is involved in the digesting of carbohydrates, lipids, and protiens.
Insulin is a shot, that mainly diabectics have to take, that lowers the amount of sugar in the blood.
Diabetics are people that have too much glucose, sugar, in their blood, which is why they need to take shots of insulin.
If diabetics don't ge this shot of insulin daily, they have too much sugar in their blood, which causes them to become weak.
Too much insulin can cause weakness, anxiety, depression, and can cause a person to collapse, but can be cured by surgery or glucose treatment.
Glucagon, on the other hand, tends to raise the amount of sugar in the blood.
It is important to have both of these hormones in the body, because they help to maintain homeostasis, or stability.
