Insufficient cho intake leads to low muscle glycogen levels. 30-90 grams/hour: recommendations for recovery after competition or training - high cho, moderate protein mix. To promote insulin response, use immediately after (30-minute window). For long or intense workouts use a recovery drink with 15-25 grams of complete protein with 40-60 grams of sugar. Follow up with a meal within an hour. >/= 126mg/dl: hormones that regulate blood glucose. Insulin, glucagon, epinephrine, cortisol: review glycogen storage. Review the function of insulin and glut-4 receptors. Diabetes: the two different types and the cause of each type. Type 1 - pancreas stops making insulin; type. 2 caused by insulin resistance: define - insulin is present, cells are not sensitive to its affects and understand insulin resistance. Glut-4 transporters not being signaled well, some glucose is entering the cells but not enough: sign and symptoms of diabetes. Type 1: risk factors for diabetes.
