A sharp drop in blood sugar is dangerous for health, and the body gives preliminary signals before this change. Doctors named the cause of hypoglycemia and ways to prevent it.

Abnormally low blood glucose levels manifest themselves with a lack of energy, when the body cannot perform even everyday tasks. In this case, we are talking about dangerous health consequences. The main symptoms of hypoglycemia are hunger, sweating, trembling and chills against the background of confusion and loss of concentration. Sometimes a person may lose consciousness. There are signs that manifest themselves in a dream: excessive sweating, sleep disturbance, confusion upon awakening. Another symptom is a feeling of fatigue after a long sleep. The cause of hypoglycemia in diabetics is considered to be excessive release of insulin from the body after oral medication. This process must be controlled.

Hypoglycemia without diabetes is extremely rare. This disease manifests itself when the pancreas produces insulin too actively after a large meal. The same applies to overweight patients and people who have had surgery to suture the stomach. In such cases, chocolate, banana or sweet fruit juice will help. Then you need to eat a sandwich to provide the body with carbohydrates. In case of loss of consciousness, an injection of the hormone glucagon helps, which will provide a sharp increase in blood sugar levels and bring the person to consciousness. However, self-medication is dangerous, in all cases you should seek medical help.
