After a meal, the small intestine absorbs glucose from digested food. Blood glucose levels rise.
Increased blood glucose levels stimulate beta cells in the pancreas to produce insulin.
Insulin triggers liver, muscle, and fat tissue cells to absorb glucose, where it is stored. As glucose is absorbed, blood glucose levels fall.
Once glucose levels drop below a threshold, there is no longer a sufficient stimulus for insulin release, and the beta cells stop releasing insulin.
