Glucose â a sugar â is a source of energy for the cells that make up muscles and other tissues. 1  Glucose comes from two major sources: food and your liver. 2  Sugar is absorbed into the bloodstream, where it enters cells with the help of insulin.  Your liver stores and makes glucose.
Lesson Summary. Glucose is a simple sugar used by the body to make ATP, which is used by the body for energy. The body converts carbohydrates in food into simple sugars in the digestive system; the glucose enters the bloodstream, causing its level to rise and triggering the pancreas to produce insulin to regulate it.
