If : If you have diabetes, certain medications can cause low sugar. Low sugar is considered below 70. Treatment with 4-6 ounces of fruit juice or regular pop will help. You can also take 3 glucose tablets. But it is important to know why your sugar went low. You may need an adjustment in your medications. See my blog site to learn more about drugs that cause and do not cause low sugar. Notify your doctor so he can reduce your medication or change you to a better drug.

4 reactive hypoglyce: Eat only meat or fish or cheese or eggs or poultry and low starch veggies, drink only water. In other words avoid all carbs, carbs will only briefly raise your sugar levels and then your Insulin levels. The fats in the meat or fish or cheese or eggs or poultry will act like a "log on your metabolic fire" to keep your blood sugar stable for hours without raising insulin.
