My sugar goes down after a while, so I have no problem eating sugar.

Suffering from this misconception, many people play the twelve of their liver and get diabetes later in life.

How does this happen??

Your blood glucose can drop repeatedly for three reasons.

1) Hyperinsulinemia or the presence of excess insulin in the blood. If there is hyperinsulinemia for a long time, excess insulin repeatedly pulls glucose from the blood and reaches the liver. As a result, the glucose level drops repeatedly throughout the day. Average blood sugar in such patients is higher than normal or borderline.But without playing frequently, it can be seen that his hands and feet started to cut. You will be surprised to know that many university students have this problem.

2) Chronic stress induced hypoglycemia. The hormone epinephrine or adrenaline is one of our two main stress hormones, the other being cortisol. Adrenaline raises glucose levels in the short term, cortisol does not.Cortisol can either raise or lower blood glucose levels in the long run. Whether glucose levels rise or fall largely depends on whether or not there is insulin resistance.Cortisol's action here is quite complex, so I'll put it simply, being under chronic stress causes frequent drops in glucose, making you want to eat more often. This is called binge eating in pop culture.

3) Thiamine or vitamin B1 deficiency. Because we eat so many refined carbs, most of us have vitamin B-1 deficiency.If vitamin B-1 is low, average glucose will increase, if glucose is high, insulin level will increase. As a result, insulin will rise and glucose will drop again.

These three mechanisms mainly reduce our blood glucose.

Now, if you go to make up for low blood glucose with sugar, each of these three causes will be worse than before. Pressure on the liver and adrenal glands will increase.

As a result, the chances of getting diabetes will increase.

Therefore I say, taking glucose should never be the solution to low blood glucose.

So what is the way??

1) Time restricted eating. 12 hours a day on an empty stomach, 12 hours on a full stomach.
2) Keeping enough fiber and vitamin B1 in food. The best sources of fiber are vegetables and non-refined carbs.
3) Increasing stress tolerance. You will need a lot for this. All electrolytes including sodium and vitamins B3, B5.

What's more, it's about positive thinking and learning to survive the kind of stress you have to deal with most of the time with intelligence and strategy. Then stress tolerance will increase.

There is another trick.

Especially if the girls are a little scared, sodium + magnesium is lacking. After that, after various physiological actions, the result is low blood glucose.

Low blood glucose In people with persistently low blood pressure, they will have a particularly different sodium intake. At least an extra half teaspoon a day, divided into three or four portions.
