Potential Hypoglycemia Symptoms 

Low Blood Sugar or hypoglycemia symptoms typically worsen several hours after a meal. However, scientific studies now show that there’s much more to hypoglycemia symptoms and hypoglycemia treatments than just stabilizing blood sugar. The adrenal stress hormones, adrenalin and cortisol, are critically involved. In fact, most hypoglycemia symptoms are caused not by low blood sugar per se, but by an over-reaction of adrenalin and cortisol discharge–part of the body’s defense against blood sugar falling too low. A broad holistic approach to hypoglycemia treatments provides the best results.

Suspect low blood sugar symptoms if:
any symptoms tend to get worse when your meal is delayed, or if symptoms increase 3 to 4 hours after eating.

Suspect low blood sugar symptoms if:
symptoms worsen several hours after eating a large amount of sugars, refined carbohydrates, caffeine alcohol or “junk” food, and if you tend to improve after “cleaning up” your diet.

Suspect hypoglycemia symptoms if:
you feel a need to eat many times a day.

Suspect that low blood sugar symptoms may be part (not necessarily all) of the problem if you are chronically tired or nervous or just not feeling well with or without a clearly diagnosed illness. 


"Diabetes mellitus, often simply referred to as diabetes—is a group of metabolic diseases in which a person has high blood sugar, either because the body does not produce enough insulin, or because cells do not respond to the insulin that is produced. This high blood sugar produces the classical symptoms of polyuria (frequent urination), polydipsia (increased thirst) and polyphagia (increased hunger).
There are three main types of diabetes:
  • Type 1 diabetes: results from the body's failure to produce insulin, and presently requires the person to inject insulin. (Also referred to as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, IDDM for short, and juvenile diabetes.)
  • Type 2 diabetes: results from insulin resistance, a condition in which cells fail to use insulin properly, sometimes combined with an absolute insulin deficiency. (Formerly referred to as non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, NIDDM for short, and adult-onset diabetes.)
  • Gestational diabetes: is when pregnant women, who have never had diabetes before, have a high blood glucose level during pregnancy. It may precede development of type 2 DM."



Note:
   Almost any physical or mental health problem increases vulnerability to hypoglycemia symptoms. Hypoglycemia symptoms, in turn, worsen physical and mental illness. The result: a vicious cycle that helps keep people ill. Hence, the importance of proper hypoglycemia treatments.

And don't forget: food that helps you to get/feel better...!!
