Not enough protein: Generally not eating enough protein and consistently and eating carbohydrate will cause a surge in Insulin that will drive your blood sugar into the cells causing a sudden drop in the sugar levels in the blood causing a lower blood sugar or hypoglycemia.

Many: Fasting or after eating? Most people who think they have "hypoglycemia" do not. See a competent endocrinologist if you think you have hypoglycemia.
