Why insulin is called anabolic hormone plz gibe me answer fast |
| Answer» Insulin is a peptide hormone secreted by the pancreas in response to increases in blood sugar .After a meal, the amount of insulin secreted into the blood increases as blood sugar rises. Similarly, as blood sugar falls, insulin secretion by the pancreas decreases.Insulin thus acts as an “anabolic” or storage hormone. In fact, many have called insulin “the most anabolic hormone”. Once insulin is in the blood, it shuttles glucose (carbohydrates), amino acids, and blood fats into the cells of the body. | |
