It is my understanding that insuline helps the glucose enter the cells.
How is too much insulin a problem, since the glucose goes where it is supposed to go ?
What are the main problems caused by a rush of glucose inside the cells ?

The problem is not necessarily putting a lot of glucose into the cells but having too little left over in the blood. The cells use it up quickly and you don’t have enough left over to power basic functions unless you consume more. It’s kind of like doing a bunch of donuts in your car before going on a long drive. The gas was technically used to do *something,* but it was basically wasted.
