A member asked:
Can anyone get hypoglycemia (blood sugar less then 3.9) from not eating enough? (not diabetic)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes-Consider that a person who has the eating disorder anorexia may not be consuming enough food for their body to produce sufficient glucose. I wish you well with your health!
