Researchers adjusted their computer algorithm to the slower insulin absorption rate and on a repeat experiment blood glucose was tightly controlled in all of the subjects.

When it does your pancreas receives a signal that your blood glucose has started to go up, and it will secrete insulin.

这时你的胰腺会收到信号,你的血糖水平开始升高了,它就会分泌胰岛素

Now when you want to maintain good health, high peaks, high spikes in blood glucose and the insulin response that provokes is not a very good thing, and so the red line is a far healthier way to be than the yellow line is.

如果你想保持健康,血糖和胰岛素都出现高峰值,这对健康来说可不是好事,红线要比黄线更健康

"What we found was that high blood pressure,smoking, overweight/obesity and high blood glucose account for five years of loss of life expectancy in men and about four years in women at the national level."

Let's create a graph here that on the x axis it's going to be time, so time zero will be when you first take in a food and then one hour later, two hours later will be shown as you go from left to right, and then we'll have blood glucose level up on the y axis.

我们在这建立一个曲线图,X轴代表的是时间,所以零时间点是你第一次进食的时间,然后一小时以后,两小时以后,是从左到右呈现在图表上的,在Y轴上是你的血糖值

You have elevated insulin levels, you have high fasting plasma glucose, so the blood sugar that we talked about before, impaired glucose tolerance, and an elevated triglyceride levels, low HDL cholesterol, , and hypertension.

像是高胰岛素水平,空腹血糖高,之前讲过的血糖也是,葡萄糖耐量降低,高甘油三酯水平,HDL胆固醇水平低,以及高血压

Failure to maintain tight control of glucose levels - by measuring blood sugar with a meter and compensating with doses of insulin - can result in serious health complications, including blindness, kidney failure and heart disease.

The pump developed by researchers is a double pump - in addition to insulin, it automatically secretes glucagon, a hormone that taps glucose reserves in the liver, raising blood sugar levels when they get too low, a condition called hypoglycemia.
