    amount of insulin hormone present in the bloodstream

    Insulin levels refer to the amount of insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas, present in the blood. Insulin helps regulate blood sugar (glucose) levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose into cells for energy or storage. Abnormal insulin levels can indicate conditions such as diabetes, insulin resistance, or metabolic syndrome. Monitoring insulin levels, often through blood tests like fasting insulin or serum insulin levels, is crucial for diagnosing and managing these conditions.
