I would speak about the concept of balance and equilibrium.

I would mention how physical activity and what is eaten factor into that balance.

I would mention the liver.

I would also mention why and when a diabetic would take insulin and why and when a diabetic would take glucagon.

I would also mention that the abnormally slow mobilization of glucose reserves in the liver in diabetes plays a role in increasing the danger of hypoglycemia, as well as making management of glucose levels more difficult. Glucogon can aid in correcting diabetic hypoglycemia, which accounts for 4 to 6% of all deaths in type 1 diabetics.

I have heard that too high levels of body mass can contribute to the problem.

Only to Type II diabetes, and it has less to do with mass and more to do with behavior.
