What to do about low blood sugar levels.

Hypoglycemia is an abnormally low level of sugar in the blood.
In the simplest of terms, it means that our body cannot handle the large amount of sugars we tend to consume on a daily basis.
Our foods are converted in their original state into glucose, which is the fuel our body needs to keep us going.
If the pancreas releases too much insulin, the blood sugar drops below the level needed to maintain optimum health.
Hypoglycemia is a condition that needs medical consultation, in order to receive the correct course of treatment.

Symptoms of hypoglycemia include:
* fatigue
* insomnia
*sudden hunger
* allergies
*crying spells
* mental confusion
* nervousness
* craving for sweets
* cold hands and feet
* forgetfulness
* mood swings
* faintness
* headaches
* depression
* phobias
* heart palpitations
* dizziness
* blurred vision
* inner trembling
*outbursts of temper
