Symptoms, conditions and causes
What is the most prevalent cause of hypoglycemia, and how does this condition typically manifest in individuals?
If you’re diabetic, blood sugar levels below 70mg/dl are considered hypoglycemia. If you’re not a diabetic, blood sugar levels below 50mg/dl are considered hypoglycemia.
There are many types of hypoglycemia.
• Idiopathic hypoglycemic: unknown cause
• Idiopathic postprandial hypoglycemic: symptoms of hypoglycemia without low blood sugars
• Adrenal-related hypoglycemia: hypoglycemia due to abnormal adrenal function
• Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia: related to high insulin
Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia is the most common form of hypoglycemia.
However, the most common cause of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia is really excessive carbohydrate consumption, which causes inulin resistance.
