hypoglycemia

3923358 tn?1358552214 A single hard-boiled egg and apple sauce is not healthy breakfast. Breakfast needs to be healthy with adequate proportions of carbohydrates, proteins, fat, vitamins and minerals. It is not only the total calorie but the distribution that has to be maintained healthy. You would need to add some carbohydrates and fruits in adequate proportions. Diet lacking in carbohydrates is likely to be responsible for the low blood sugar.
Avatar m tn Perhaps you are eating too many carbs or too much sugar at breakfast? I suggest, from experience, making sure you eat some protein for breakfast. If you can I suggest eggs etc. or my personal favorite for weekday going to work mornings--a Zone bar. They are portable and high in protein!
Avatar n tn If your blood glucose was 61 an hour or two after breakfast, especially if your breakfast was fairly high carb (such as cereal, bread, etc) you might have a specific type of hypoglycemia called reactive hypoglycemia which is people who have low blood sugar after a meal high in carbs. I would suggest seeing your doctor and getting tested to see what type of hypoglycemia you have and to make sure you aren't pre-diabetes.
6918915 tn?1395932871 I suddenly get very light headed, dizzy, anxious, hot, sweaty and STARVING. I think this is hypoglycemia but not totally sure and I'm going to ask my doctor on Monday at my appt. It happened here and there a few weeks ago but now it's been happening every day and its awful. I end up literally stuffing my face with anything I can find that has sugar because my body feels like that's my only instinct. Then after like 20 minutes of eating and putting my head down I feel better.
Avatar n tn At that time, I was overweight (75kg) for my height (160cm) and was not careful with my diet, under lot of stress at work and not getting regular exercise. My doctor put me on Metformin (500mg twice a day) and advised me on proper diet and exercise. I lost about 5kg within 5-6 weeks by simply changing my diet and regular exercise (70kg by mid June). However, at the same time I began feeling hypoglycemic after everytime I took Metformin.
Avatar n tn org/diseases-conditions/hypoglycemia/symptoms-causes/syc-20373685 There is something called reactive hypoglycemia. In people without diabetes, hypoglycemia can result from the body producing too much insulin after a meal, causing blood sugar levels to drop. This is called reactive hypoglycemia. Reactive hypoglycemia can be an early sign of diabetes. https://www.diabetes.
956433 tn?1255977108 good eating habbits are key in treating BOTH anxiety and hypoglycemia separately...that's no different if you have them both together. while there are many routes in treating anxiety...all of those routes are aided by good diet. i've yet to hear of one thats aided by a poor diet, but i suppose all is possible...though certainly not probable. obviously the frontline treatment of hypoglycemia is good diet. with this in mind, it's reasonable to assume good diet can only benefit you.
Avatar n tn In the case of eating and then having a glucose level drop several hours later, this sounds like an instance when your pancreas put out insulin and then continued to produce the insulin to cover that breakfast after the breakfast finished digesting, leaving you on the borderline of hypoglycemia.
Avatar n tn I have balanced my diet and reduced food intake (carbs/proteins)...sort of like the diet of a hypoglysemic. If I eat too much at breakfast, I get woozy within an hour or two then it goes away. My ears are ringing. I sleep good and feel good when I get up but must be careful to eat a balanced breakfast & not eat too much or I will get woozy. My urine color looks normal. Heart and carrotid artery ultrasound check OK, EKG OK, blood sugar normal.
Avatar n tn I have been diagnosed with type ll diabetes, why do I sometimes shake, I got this way just before lunch, I ate breakfast, just before they brought my plate of lunch I started shaking, I ate and i'm still shaking
1348086 tn?1370783185 I get that sometimes too. I have hypoglycemia that comes and goes but eating a healthier diet keeps it at bay. I do not have diabetes but it runs in my family so I keep an eye on it. I have more of a "reactive" hypoglycemia which means when I eat or drink something too loaded with sugar or empty carbs, it will make me crash within an hour or so. Then I have to grap something to stabalize it again.
Avatar n tn Is severe Hypoglycemia a sign of Diabetes? I have had a normal fasting blood tests. My hypoglycemia strikes with no warning many times throughout the day, even as soon as an hour after my meals. I have to carry glucose tablets and orange juice with me at all times. When it falls low I cannot function. The last really bad episode of this I could hardly breathe, complete mental confusion, weak all over, headache, heart palpitations, very scary to say the least.
Avatar m tn s, nurses, allied health and dietitians many questions and even joined a Hypoglycemia support group, and I found out that diet alone helped me through my darkest hours...I am not joking. I sincerely believe that TYPE 2 can be almost eradicated and also insulin resistance /hypoglycemia too, all these can pretty much be non existent, just from changing our diet...
Avatar m tn Okay, first some history about myself, I suffered a panic attack in Nov. 06 and ever since then have suffered from a lot of anxiety. I'm not very active and don't really eat the best diet. For a few years now, in between meals I would feel kinda shaky and feel that I needed to eat. I asked a friend who happens to be a nutrisionist and she said it might be hypoglycemia. Now to my question or I guess concern.
Avatar f tn Fasting sugar was 80 and fasting insulin was always 6-9. He diagnosed adrenal fatigue and reactive hypoglycemia due to poor diet. My problems improved with diet overhaul and life went on. A few years later, I suddenly began losing weight rapidly without cause. I got down to 110 pounds, and I am a very tall woman. My BMI was under 18. I was put through another battery of the same tests, and everything was normal except the blood sugar dropping to the 70's after meals.
Avatar n tn If your fasting blood sugar is okay you probably just get on the low side and start to feel gittery and irritable. I am like that too. So, yes protein and the complex carbs both work. Just eat either one more often and have smaller meals or have a snack with you so when you feel like that you can boost yourself up. I personally feel better now that I'm on a vegan diet. I eat a whole plant based diet with complex carbs and veggies and vanilla soy milk. I don't get as gittery.
1662361 tn?1302762372 I am 23, I know I am over weight, I diet and exercise but never loss weight. I have been test for diabetes since I was 12, and my levels have always been low. I have noticed lately tho when I test because my mom and grandma are diabetic that my sugar levels are from 50 to maybe 75 no matter what I eat. I snack on granola and some times hard candy and sometimes cookies. I just feel sick all the time, and dizzy and i get really shaky and, Nothing I have been doing is working.
1949068 tn?1449628519 I have been having hypoglycemia moments. Which that is odd. They have been coming about for the last couple of years. No, I don't eat breakfast (unless I'm in the mood--which is rare). I don't eat until around 12pm-3pm. When I do it? Its small & a healthy meal. I'm not big on sweets and/or foods containing a lot of sugar? Another thing I notice? I stay so thristy all the time & I have the dry mouth as well. So I was thinking maybe I am an diabetic?
Avatar n tn m all there mentally. The doctor has done a three day 16 hour fast and said that hypoglycemia will definately show up if I have it. I could have told him it won't, as I have had this done before and the readings are perfect, and I feel great after a fast. Because of this they seem to think I don't have a problem, but every time I have been to my own doctor after having had breakfast, my readings are about 2.1.
Avatar m tn Would be good if you can start with small changes to make your diet better.... we can often get away with poor diet when we are young, but it will catch up later....
Avatar f tn I suddenly felt dizzy as if i was gonna pass out, palpitations, shaking, tunnel vision and sweating. I had eaten breakfast that morning 4 hours prior to the incident. I had also only had about 4 hours sleep the night before. I sat down had an apple and the feeling went away after about 15 mins. The problem is now is that i feel very anxious about the incident and keep thinking i have a serious heart problem.
Avatar f tn Also, be sure not to skip meals, eat a healthy breakfast everyday and a snack between meals. Many people think that with hypoglycemia you need to eat sweats but lots of foods produce glucose. Your saliva breaks carbs down into sugar so you could keep some crackers or something similar with you so you always have a snack.
