A member asked:
What's the reason for the increase of glucose concentration throughout the day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Post prandial: After eating, there's an inevitable mild blood sugar increase as glucose enters the system, but normally this increase is physiological and expected. It is also short-lived. It signals the body that fuel is available so that other hormones can be released to help use and store the intake of energy.
