How do you feel when your Sugar is Low

Introduction

 

Low blood sugar, or hypoglycemia, occurs when your glucose levels drop below normal. This can cause a range of physical and emotional symptoms, such as shakiness, dizziness, irritability, and confusion. Recognizing these signs is crucial for addressing the condition promptly and preventing more severe consequences. This introduction provides an overview of how low sugar affects the body and the importance of managing it effectively.



What Causes Low Blood Sugar?

 

Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) can be caused by several factors, including:

1. Skipping meals or eating too little: Not consuming enough food can cause blood sugar to drop.

 
2. Excessive insulin or medication: Too much insulin or diabetes medication can lower blood sugar too much.

 
3. Increased physical activity: Intense exercise without adjusting food intake or insulin can lead to low blood sugar.

 
4. Alcohol consumption: Drinking alcohol, especially on an empty stomach, can cause blood sugar levels to drop.

 
5. Health conditions: Certain illnesses, like liver disease or hormonal imbalances, can affect blood sugar levels.

    It’s important to manage these factors to prevent hypoglycemia.
