NIDDK: Hypoglycemia
Tells what it is, symptoms, and causes in people with or without diabetes.
Includes tips for eating right.
In adults or children older than 10 years, hypoglycemia is uncommon except as a side effect of diabetes treatment, but it can result from other medications or diseases, hormone or enzyme deficiencies, or tumors
If you have diabetes, this glucagon response to hypoglycemia may be impaired, making it harder for your glucose levels to return to the normal range
You might cry out or have nightmares find that your pajamas or sheets are damp from perspiration feel tired, irritable, or confused when you wake up [] Hypoglycemia: A Side Effect of Diabetes Medications Hypoglycemia can occur in people with diabetes who take certain medications to keep their blood glucose levels in control
Causes of Hypoglycemia In people taking certain blood-glucose lowering medications, blood glucose can fall too low for a number of reasons: meals or snacks that are too small, delayed, or skipped excessive doses of insulin or some diabetes medications, including sulfonylureas and meglitinides (Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, biguanides, and thiazolidinediones alone should not cause hypoglycemia but can when used with other diabetes medicines.) increased activity or exercise excessive drinking of alcohol Prevention Your diabetes treatment plan is designed to match your medication dosage and schedule to your usual meals and activities

Search > Diabetes 1 | Diabetes Related Diabetes articles: - on WebMD - on WebMD - on MedicineNet Diabetes Overview Diabetes is a set of related diseases in which the body cannot regulate the amount of sugar () in the blood
People with diabetes either do not produce enough insulin (type 1 diabetes) or cannot use insulin properly (type 2 diabetes), or both
In diabetes, glucose in the blood cannot move into cells, and it stays in the blood
Type 1 diabetes : The body stops producing insulin or produces too little insulin to regulate blood glucose level
Type 1 diabetes comprises about 10% of total cases of diabetes in the United States
Type 1 diabetes is typically recognized in childhood or adolescence
It used to be known as juvenile-onset diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
Type 1 diabetes can occur in an older individual due to destruction of pancreas by alcohol, disease, or removal by surgery or progressive failure of pancreatic beta cells, which produce insulin
People with type 1 diabetes generally require daily insulin treatment to sustain life
Type 2 diabetes : The pancreas secretes insulin, but the body is partially or completely unable to use the insulin

Diabetes Information
Articles and charts from the FDA regarding food and meal planning.
| Food and Meal Planning Because food intake affects the body's need for insulin and insulin's ability to lower blood sugar, diet is the cornerstone of diabetes treatment
Today, diabetes experts no longer recommend a single meal plan for all people with diabetes
The American Diabetes Association recommends that people with diabetes consult a registered dietician to design a meal plan
Food and Meal Planning Selecting Foods for a Healthy Meal Plan By following the government's Dietary Guidelines for Americans, you can promote your health and reduce your risk for chronic diseases such as heart disease, certain types of cancer, diabetes, stroke, and osteoporosis
Some people with diabetes use the Exchange Lists for Meal Planning
This system, established by the American Dietetic and American Diabetes associations, separates foods into six categories based on their nutritional makeup
For detailed information about nutritional guidelines for people with diabetes, see the following links: Nutrition and Your Health: Dietary Guidelines for Americans FDA Consumer Magazine, Diabetes Demands a Triad of Treatments (Revised October 1999) American Diabetes Association: Meal Planning Principles for Diabetes American Diabetes Association Position Statement: Evidence-Based Nutrition Principles and Recommendations for the Treatment and Prevention of Diabetes and Related Complications The Food Guide Pyramid The Food Guide Pyramid can help you put the Dietary Guidelines into action
