Hypoglycemia: There are some patients that are overly dependent on carbohydrate metabolism to provide metabolic energy. When carbohydrates are metabolized, carbon dioxide(co2) is produced. Co2 is transformed into carbonic acid in the blood stream which needs to be neutralized by bicarbonate (sodium bicarbonate). These same people tend to run low blood sugars (bs) the low bs stimulates the release of adrenaline.
