Diet and Low Sugar?
For people with diabetes, one can get low blood sugar if you take too much insulin for the number of carbohydrates you eat or drink. For instance.
- After you eat a meal that has a lot of simple sugars.
- If you miss a snack or don’t eat a full meal.
- If you eat later than usual.
- If you drink alcohol without eating any food.
Complications Of High Blood Sugar?
- High Blood Sugar leads to Diabetes.
- High sugar levels slowly damages the pancreas.
- High levels of blood sugar can cause charges that lead to a hardening of the blood vessels.
- Kidney disease or kidney failure.
- High blood pressure.
Without treatment, you might get more severe symptoms like:
- Poor concentration.
- Numbness in mouth and tongue.
- Passing out.
- Seizures
- Nightmares or bad dreams
- Coma.
Symptoms of Hypoglycemia(Low Blood Sugar)
People with diabetes get low blood sugar when their bodies don’t have enough sugar to use as fuel due to diet medications and conditions and exercise.
- Confusion
- Dizziness
- Feeling shaky
- Hunger
- Headaches
- Pounding heart; racing pulse
- Pale skin
- Sweating
- Trembling (afraid and shaky)
- Weakness
- Anxiety
Symptoms of Hyperglycemia(High Blood Sugar)
When one diet or fasts, the liver keeps the levels normal by turning fat and muscle into sugar.
Levels higher than normal, but not reaching the point of full-blown diabetes.
Early symptoms include:
- Frequent thirst
- Headaches
- Frequent peeing.
- Blurred Vision
- Trouble concentration
- Fatigue(weak, tired feeling)
- Weight loss
- Blood sugar level more than 180mg/dl.
During the day, levels tend to be at their lowest just before meals because glucose in the blood is being used up. As energy. For people without diabetes, blood sugar levels before meals hover around 70,80 then 90(for some people) mg/dl. But a low blood sugar level varies widely too.
Normally, blood sugar levels should be less than 100mg/dl after not eating for a least 8 hours (fasting blood sugar). And it’s less than 140/dl 2 hours after eating (random blood sugar)
Blood Sugar Level Examined.
The blood sugar level is important to know as abnormal levels can cause severe complications. There are several hormones responsible to regulate blood sugar. The major two are;
Insulin(which reduces blood sugar level when it’s high) and,
Glucagon(which increases blood sugar level when it has dropped)
GLYCEMIA BLOOD SUGAR (glucose)
Blood sugar is the main sugar found in the blood. Glycemia refers to the concentration of sugar or glucose that is important to provide the(metabolic) energy required for many cell formations.
