Blood Sugar Balance
Every meal floods your blood with glucose, and your pancreas fights to push it back into the green target band. Hit Eat meal to watch insulin drive sugar into your cells, or Exerciseto let glucagon release the liver's reserves. Then switch to a diabetic pancreas and see what happens when the insulin response fails.

What to try
- Eat a big meal with a healthy pancreas. How high does glucose spike, and how long until insulin drags it back into range?
- Switch to the Type 1 diabetic pancreas and eat the same meal. Why does the glucose line climb so much higher and stay there?
- In diabetic mode, tap Inject insulin after a meal. Can you time the dose to keep the trace inside the band?
- Hit Exercise when glucose is already near the bottom of the band. What does glucagon do to stop you from crashing too low?
- Watch the "out of range" readout over several minutes. Which pancreas keeps you in the healthy zone a larger share of the time?
