GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute. More likely to cause leptin and glucose resistance Review Questions- Which hormone is released when blood sugars are low? High? Where is made?o Low: Glucagono High: Insulino Made: Pancreas - What are the health risks of simple sugars?o Increase in death from CVD- What are the specific health risks of fructoseo Health risks of fructose: more likely to cause leptin and glucose resistance, which could decrease the body’s system to indicate fullness- How does the fructose content of HFCs compare to that of table sugar, honey?o HFC’s are 50-80% fructose, Honey is 50/50 Glucose + Fructose- What is the AHA recommendation for added sugar intake for men and women (both tsp. and grams)?o Men: 9.5 tsp./38go Women: 6.5 tsp./26g Hypoglycemia- Characteristicso Too much insulin producedo Low blood sugar- Treatmento Low glycemic index
