I just some m&m's and feel like i'm going to pass out. i'm also very sweaty. is this a reaction to sugar? nothing else to add

If : If you feel like you are going to pass out, it is probably not due to the sugar in the candy, but rather a combination of a few processes happening in your body. Sweating can be a sign of low blood sugar, and is not typically a sign of high blood sugar. Perhaps you have ingested something that is giving you food poisoning. If you feel like you are going to pass out, get help. Sweating can be related to an infectious process, but may also be cardiac related.

Due to M&M s: The artificial color & preservatives may have caused allergy. See a doctor In the meantime take benadryl 25-50 mg every 6 hours as needed- may produce drowsiness.
