When the liver is inflamed due to Hepatitis, it can interfere with how your body absorbs sugar from the food you eat. As a result, the pancreas works overtime, producing more insulin, the hormone that helps move sugar into your cells. Over time, your body may stop responding to insulin properly, a condition known as insulin resistance. This leads to excess sugar remaining in your bloodstream, which can eventually result in type 2 diabetes. One silent condition can lead to another, so it’s important to get screened, stay informed, and take steps to protect both your liver and your overall health.
