Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The hormone insulin lowers blood sugar (glucose) levels when blood sugar is too high. If you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes and need insulin to control your blood sugar, taking more insulin than you need can cause your blood sugar level to drop too low and result in hypoglycemia.
Detailed explanation-2: -Insulin hypoglycemia is a potent endogenous stressor that evokes ACTH secretion as well as GH release. Insulin (0.1-0.15 U/kg) is injected intravenously after an overnight fast to achieve symptomatic hypoglycemia and a blood glucose level of less than 40 mg/dL. This test must be performed under supervision.
