Hypoglycemia Symptoms (WITHOUT DIABETES) + What to Do About It!

[@HealthCoachKait]

Do you suffer hypoglycemia?

[@williambledsoe1812]

I don't anymore. I would get the tremors and extreme hunger when I used to drink though. I found myself eating anything sweet to settle it down. I was also pre-diabetic.

[@Toby88888]

yes had really bad reactive hypoclocemia all my life finally worked out what it is. Trying keto now only been 2 weeks and struggling to get into ketosis. Did carnivore for a few months but did not completely cure it due to gluconeogenis so switching to higher fat ratio and ketovoir style. Wish these vids had been around years ago! Thank you

[@colemanflaherty5839]

A friend of mine and myself were hangingout a while back. We stopped st Dunkin Donuts and she started showing symptoms like sweating, ordered like $15 worth of food and eventually collapsed in the place. Luckily he go back on his feet and I bought him a Gatorade This is scary when nobody expects it

[@pherenike8079]

I did. Not diagnosed, I had no family doctor. I once told my symptoms to a doctor while at the emergency for a non-related problem. He discarded it completely, saying it was common!! Hum, waking in the middle of the night, shaking from hunger, collapsing on the kitchen floor before I could drink a glass of milk is normal ? Anyway, I knew even back then that sugar was the cause. Reducing sugar greatly reduced those episodes in frequency, except during my bout of veganism (2 years). Today, with meat and fat in my diet, it never happens.

My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes.

This entire time I’ve been blaming all of these symptoms on anxiety 😭 Noticed that when I drank a single half glass of wine I woke up shaking, thirsty, weak, throbbing headache, dizzy, like almost unresponsive and ready to faint. This was also happening with some foods and I couldn’t tell which ones triggered it so I stopped eating for like 3 weeks because I was so scared of feeling like that. Got blood work done in the middle of having all of these symptoms and my glucose was 57 mg/dL. Definitely will leave it to my doctor to diagnose me but I’m happy I saw this and have a better idea of what could be going on. Thanks for the information!!

[@campankarina2746]

Well I thought I was anxious as well, and when I was starting to feel dizzy and I was not able to concentrate the people were blaming me that I act like a child and I have to deal with my emotions. 4 years later I found out that is hypoglycemia.

So true. I did keto for 3 years and I'm so glad I did, but it's not perfect for everyone, and I struggled with it myself. While I lost weight and cured some inflammation issues, I also had periods with symptoms of hypoglycemia or ketoacidosis. I was skipping breakfast everyday, but that just wasn't sustainable. The frustrating part is, all the big influencers always say the solution is MORE KETO, and yet that will put me into a spell of vertigo that will have me literally on my ass. Still waiting for the community to catch up and start speaking to the people like us, the outliers. I believe in low carb, but it's tough to manage it. Always looking for ways to improve the diet. Oh, another thing, I really don't digest fat well and that's an obvious problem.

Find out what your A1C numbers are. There is a range from non-diabetic, to pre-diabetic, to full blown diabetic. Knowing your numbers is very helpful to lowering them.

[@Jademoon25]

I had hypoglycemia and was not aware. Then I started taking Berberine and ended up going into severe hypoglycemic shock. I stopped taking it, but less than 2 weeks later, I had another hypoglycemic episode (this one less severe). Mine was caused by an unhealthy low caloric deficit. I started eating more calories (not carbs so much- still under 20 a day for keto) and monitoring my blood glucose with a meter over two weeks. Days I was at or below my deficit amount, I had hypoglycemic blood glucose numbers 1/3 of the day. On days I ate more calories (still deficit but 10% instead of 35%) my blood sugar was low-normal and I felt better. I had blood work done at the dr and my a1c level was 3.6 from all the hypoglycemic days and episodes. She also found that my LDL was high, and my wbc, vitamin d, and ALC were severely low. Long story short, I am suffering from malnutrition. I cut my calories so much that my keto diet is unbalanced. Little fat, mostly fiber, and a bit of protein. I was eating low cal low carb keto snack foods to stay in and under my deficit. I cant belive I did this to myself. Im fixing my diet and buying more meat, fruit, and veggies and throwing out the keto snack food. Im done. Im also annoyed that my dr was so concerned with my LDL (209, very high) even though she said its from the unbalanced diet and genetic predisposition- told me no red meat or fat.... im not listening, but im not going overboard either. I had 0 red meat since 10 months ago when I started my deficit. I cut out so much fat, that I dont know how my LDL is so high. Im going to stop counting calories, and eat a balanced keto diet THEN have all the blood work redone in a few months.

[@Jb-ky1ri]

I did not eat very well in the past few days, because of the GERD. I was scared of eating anything. This morning, I just ate a little cereal and that's eat. Nothing for lunch. Around 2:30PM I started feeling funky. When I drunk milk, I felt a little better. I boiled eggs and ate some bread and drunk apple juice, now I am feeling a lot better. I will have to get my snacks ready from now on.

Apparently I must have reactive hypoglycemia because I started the Keto diet 3 weeks ago and that's when it all started. I never realized how many carbs I was consuming until I started Keto. I had been programmed not to eat fat and my diet was very deficient in healthy fats. My body has been very reactive since I lowered my carb intake until I feel as though I'm going to pass out. The headaches and irritability have been so bad that all I can do is lay on the couch when I'm normally a very productive person. I have an appointment with my PCP this month to confirm it. Thank you for this video, it answered a lot of questions and I now understand what's going on with my body.

I’ve had a very similar experience when trying keto. It was very scary and it lead me to eating carbs again, and I realized that I relied so much on snacking and eating carbs that I have never felt those symptoms before. Have you still continued with the keto diet and has your symptoms improved?

@@kayleeloomer I'm no longer on the keto diet, I realized it wasn't for me. However, I have cut back on the carbs and snack maybe once a day. I do consume more healthier fats like walnuts, dark chocolate almonds and almond butter. I do 16/8 intermittent fasting daily.

I can't find any info or what to do for hypoglycemia when your unable to eat or eat too little. Yes, eating is a problem for many people for many different reasons but no one addresses how not eating leads to chronic low glucose and insulin, any info is always connected to diabetes, medications and carbohydrates.

My glucose level averaged at 3.0 mmol/L. And so the doc put me on a six meal a day diet, and that was that. No other help at all. So, my brain began to shut down bit by bit. One of the first signs was that my pupils now took up to 2 hours to respond to a change in light intensity. Then later on, auto eye focus was no longer auto eye focus. I had to control it manually. After 8 years of this not receiving any effective help from my GP, nor the specialist I was sent to, I was well on my way to becoming a complete vegetable. I now could not even recognize all words as words, but had to read them letter by letter. My short term memory, on and off throughout the day, would shut down completely. I could not even spell my brothers name anymore. And the list of problems goes on and on. After the cause was found, it still took another 8 years for me to relearn things, although I never did relearn how to write, other than write my signature. And guess who found the cause. Yet, it was me, despite my condition. The doctors were 100% hopeless, if not outright evil.

[@BornAgainOneHope]

I was delighted when you talked about fasting. I fast purely for spiritual purposes but I’m glad to know that it also has the added benefit of preventing hypoglycemia (although I will experience it in the short term during the fast). The spiritual side to fasting is absolutely incredible and has been sorely ignored in the modern world of self-indulgence in my personal opinion. Have I understood correctly? I am also hypoglycemic. I dip Copenhagen and have cut back considerably and do not indulge during my fast as I feel this profanes it if that makes sense. I am also an ectomorph but I recently put on 25 lbs due to a medication I take for schizophrenia. All of this combined makes for a pretty stressful life, but I’m thankful that it has caused me to depend on the Lord. Stress may not be that bad after all. Those who have had lives the easiest might never reach dependence upon the Lord while those who have faced many stressors may develop dependence on the Lord from having it a little harder and turn to the Lord and the Holy Spirit for help.

[@yellowiris123]

The alcohol is raising your blood sugar too much. Your body reacts by making a lot of insulin to compensate for the high sugar. That amount of insulin then is too much and you get hypoglycemia and the other symptoms. Try going with a lot less alcohol and sugars. That should help you.

God bless you, this has been the most informative video I’ve seen so far! I’ve been trying to do keto for a bit over 2 months now and even after cutting carbs, adding fats and protein I still struggle to even make it 3 HOURS between eating 😢. And even after the first hour I can’t think clearly and am in a bad mood. For some reason it’s actually gotten worse the last couple of weeks! I can go 12 hours by not eating after dinner, but that’s because I’m sleeping. So, if I could sleep all day I’d be good 😉. I need to learn how to feel good while reaching my goal of going longer without food. The type of food doesn’t seem to make much of a difference these days (although maybe it would be even worse with carbs...hard to imagine right now because it’s really bad without a lot of them).

[@hakametal]

Are you already eating low carb diet? I'm on keto and I've noticed that eating a carb heavy meal knocks me out (I literally almost passed out last time). It's definitely not hyp(er)glycemia as the symptoms you describe are classic low blood sugar. I think what's happening is that being on low carb makes you insulin sensitive, when you eat a high carb meal it drives your insulin response too hard and you end up with reactive hypoglycaemia.

I am suffering from reactive hypoglycemia since I got pregnant. I used to have insulin resistance and was following a keto diet, the doctors put me on Metformin and when I started the second trimester on my pregnancy I started to suffer all of these symptoms you described. I did a test and I was diagnosed with Gestational diabetes. Then I started using a CGM and discovered that my sugar all night and after 2 hours of eating was dropping to 45-50. I was feeling terrible. I went in for monitoring in a hospital and the doctors gave me a glucose injection, it was horrible, my heart was racing, my sugar spiked in 5 min... Now the only solution they gave me is to eat every 2 hours and be sure to add carbs. I do eat my carbs last as I read a book called Glucose revolution in which I got the tip. I am trapped in the vicious cycle you explained, eating from 6 am to 10 pm, last meals I'm not even hungry (I used to fast 16 hours, I was eating twice a day) but I do it for my baby, I force the meal into my body, it has been working as my sugar now is stable 70-120, haven't had any crashes lately but I really hope I could go back to eating how I liked and what I liked after the baby is born. I have read that ketones are not good for the baby so I'm not following any keto diet at the moment, but I'd appreciate if I could get more information on how to address the root cause for hypoglycemia during pregnancy.

What is the effect of ketone to the baby? Where can I read about it?

[@johnmeneses7039]

No 7. Sweating (Waking up in the middle of the night sweating). Worst symptom is when everything turns blue in the centre of your vision but you can still see the parts around the central blue areas. Solution, eat something quickly or use a glucose kit. No need to even test, my sugar levels are lower than 3.4 at that stage.

I've had so many issues getting diagnosed. I have had hypoglycemia symptoms for years. But every time I go in tests are normal. It's so frustrating. Sometimes I will have just ate less than 2 hours ago and then bam I'm at work an hour after eating shaking and fighting a headache and dizziness.

[@JanelleReneeWells]

Yesss!! Lisa, basically same thing here, but then what I realized is that when they had me fast, I always made sure I ate a buffet of food before bed overstuffing myself, & scheduled the earliest blood testing possible, so this is why my blood levels were low but not low enough to "qualify" in a sense. 🤦🙄😩 I did it that way just because I knew for a fact that I wouldn't be able to last that many hours while awake without eating, because I would start getting weak & shaky & probably throw up, but I had forgotten that me being IN that condition is the time that I actually SHOULD have them test my blood (instead of just overstuffing myself & sleeping through the "weak" phase. Lol. BUT, I saw a doctor once say that you really need to fast for longer then the amount they had told me (I forgot how many hours they suggested though I think it was like 12-13 or something?), but basically then go gt your blood levels tested whileee you are having the negative symptoms. I'm not a doctor or anything lol but I totally get you & have had the struggle too, so I hope this helps them get it figured out for you! 😊

[@HpEverything]

Okay guys hear me out please. I work in a tire warehouse unloading containers of tires. Its as hard as it sounds. For me, it was basically the gym. I’ve been in it for 2 years, and lost 30 pounds. Since its intense physical activity, i do not eat in the morning before leaving and leave for about 6 hours and come back and eat a lot. So basically i’ve been eating once a day (a lot of food) for the past year and a half, but i was fine. Two days ago i was at the store when i got incredibly dizzy, i started taking deep breaths, but that had never happened before so i got scared and my heart started beating super fast and felt super light headed. This is just starting but why? (Forgot to include I’ve been having sleep paralysis more frequently too)

[@yellowiris123]

Not sure about that. See your doctor because sleep paralysis is not a symptom of hypoglycemia as far as I know.

[@luckyw1286]

Thank you ❤️ i’ve been to the doctor I’ve been tested and I’m going to go again. your video just shine light on many things so thank you very much😊

[@louistulloch1159]

Hi Miss Kait. Thank you for the video and the work that you do, in general. I am for anyone who means to support others in their wellness! I just wanted to share that I am diagnosed with Hypoglycemia and believe myself to be reactive. The question I had is tied into Glycation, the process of which is when damage is done to various proteins in the body from sugar molecules. Judging from the info in your video, I tend to think that Hypoglycemia has many moving parts but I'll ask anyway. Are people who do have the diagnosis of Hypoglycemia less susceptible to the ravages or degrees/effect of Glycation or AGe?

[@Paradys8]

Great Great information Kait. Thank you very much 🙏🌸

My pleasure Jessica! 😘

After I eat white rice ,I get SEVERE low blood sugar symptoms ,I literally go numb ,weak ,nauseous ,sweaty ,shaking fast heartbeat and panic attack .I avoid it completely.Still I get low blood sugar, if I skip meals

[@ariellel6123]

I keep passing out and getting blurry, shaky or just losing my vision. I eat so much though it’s a bit insane. I’m exhausted, dizzy, lightheaded etc. My doctor found out I have Hypoglycemia and I even described how I thought it was low blood sugar and I could feel the drop(s). It was on my blood tests or something. I’m not sure what type I fall under. I have to eat every few hours and even with doing this I’ll still get symptoms.

[@Звезда-х3и]

Is there a treatment for that ? Like a medication or how does it get treated ?

[@Shukke1992]

What type of food do you eat?

[@Elysibat]

I'm curious if anyone has ever experienced this. I used to smoke weed (emphasis on used to) and anytime I would smoke on an empty stomach or "wake and bake" I fainted from my blood sugar dropping. My friends would have to bring me back to life with food. I've fainted so many times in this same manner. To the point where I would refuse to smoke at a function or with friends if I hadn't eaten anything recently. But I cannot find anything on the internet that mentions this correlation. I know SO many people who smoke on an empty stomach and function just fine. Another family member with hypoglycemia experiences the fainting as well. Anyone else?

[@AddlesH]

I have hypoglycemia and smoking weed has never done that to me before, that’s scary

[@rebekahschmid7259]

At age 16 I was diagnosed with reactive hypoglycemia after a 6 hour glucose tolerance test (only lasted 3 hours). I am now 48. Believe me, i have tried everything. Had high protine snacks 6 times a day. Cut out sugar...basically I had a digestion problem. My problems started back when i was 11 and needed antibiotics for strep throat. I developed candida, leaky gut, IBS. My gallbladder was removed when i was 25 just after having my second child ( I have now 5). I now struggle eating animal products and animal fat. I have been able to fast and thus discovered which foods my body is having a problem with as i reintroduced them. Anyone out there with similar experiences? Would love to exchange stories.

[@grettalemabouchou6779]

[@peppitachips1764]

I’m non diabetic my glucose is 59 I new to this I’m having trouble understanding

[@danielabatabogdanov8586]

I think I have this because of my bad drinking habbits for years... I work hard as a cleaner. I eat a full meal 8 in the morning.. then breakfast 9 , then 2 energy bars 12 and then a full lunch ( warm meal ) at 14:00 and warm meal at 18:00 again. If i don't do this I'm in problems

[@michaelbare5380]

Great information and easy to understand. Thanks!

[@louferguson7048]

Been keto 2 years. Fasted a long time today after having been super strict with carbs 10 or less. My glucose usually runs 90-98. When it dipped below 90 I was shaking, headache, no focus and nauseous. What’s up with that! Diabetes runs in my family. Turned 50 this year. Ideas?

[@danitamccree3716]

Keto is not for everyone you need at least 30 to 40 per meal or 120 carbs a day or you can depleted your liver

[@Србомбоница86]

You need carbs man

[@EvolverWellness]

I think I have reactive hypo. I'm quite slim, bmi 18.2, so I've been resisting fasting, but I think its what I need to do. Maybe I'll just down a lot of calories during a narrower window. Fat + protein mostly. Yes? Are there people for whom fasting is not recommended?

[@Abasnail400]

I’m not sure whether my case of hypoglycemia is rare, but it affects me, my brother and my mom the exact same. We can’t go a single day without eating otherwise we will collapse and pass out from this. If we have that same experience with hypoglycemia for a few days, it could lead to be fatal Our situation is a bit different and possibly more severe, we’ve known about this for years. But either way, thanks for the tips

[@ashiecloud]

I feel like it would be helpful to talk about carbs in terms of simple vs complex, also high/low GI foods :)

[@edlynpz]

Omg!! Thank god i was looking for why I was feeling dizzy and my heartbeat was so fast…. I’m doing keto and fasting. And I eat a dark chocolate in the afternoon and for dinner I was feeling sick…

[@seren1983]

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for finally making me understand why I have been the way I am for the last 30 odd years. So fed up of self medicating with glucose tablets and buying soda to cope in an emergency! I just wanted to check something with you - I tried doing low carb, 20g a day for 2 weeks, but was still getting all these symptoms. Do you think I should increase 'good' carbs or omit them altogether for a while? Thank you :-)

[@jim.....]

Hey how are you doing with your low carb diet? Did you get any results?

[@samanthanicole8379]

I am asking this question now

[@yellowiris123]

It takes a while for the keto diet to balance everything out. 2 weeks is just the beginning.

[@4Everpoz]

Thank you for this information. Based on your description I think I've been experiencing hypoglycemia. I experienced fainting, feeling clammy and sweating, lethargic along with nausea and feeling like I have to go to the bathroom. I experienced these symptoms several years ago. I'm also dealing with hypertension. However, within this week it started again and I'm not sure what I did to bring on feeling. I recently started walking/ light jogging which I haven't done since before the pandemic. Sometimes I start my day with a list of things to do and put off having breakfast. And before I know it the afternoon is about to end. I would like to know, based on my outline whether I am hypoglycemic. And if so, how to correct this issue and change my behavior.

I don't know if i have this. But since 6 months ago i feel alot of dizziness. Yesterday i was eating white rice, i started to feel intense anxiety and dizziness so much that i was scared to pass out.. now i get also dizziness when i eat sugar and feel tired alot.

[@joyhope718]

Today I woke up with 30mg/Dl, I thought I was going to die due to the weird way my body was reacting. I was on a protein (60g)(organic meat, eggs, wild-caught fish), non-starchy vegetables, high-quality fat (cold pressed oils, seeds, and nuts) and low carbs for the last two weeks. I lost 5 lbs in 10 days. My BMI is 21. I was feeling fine until today. I was eating 25 g of carbs/day. I am really interested to know how much carbs we need daily. Today I spiked my carbs to 60g. I am a very active person. I eat to live. I was told I am insulin resistant by an endocrinologist and a nutritionist suggested the above diet. I used to fast for 12-16 hours a day for the last two weeks. I am puzzled!!! I just want to have a normal healthy life without feeling I am going to pass-out!

[@dianmorris1218]

I'm suffering with low blood sugar levels please help me

[@hakametal]

What is the conclusion then? Is it because keto diets make us insulin sensitive, and so eating a high carb meal makes our insulin spike too much? I had an episode today in the supermarket, almost passed out and was dizzy for 3 hours after. It seemed to happen after I cheated with a burrito.

[@jtcarrey]

I basically live with constant lightheadedness, whether I eat or not, my blood sugar is normal, my A1C is great, I'm not diabetic, I don't know what it is, my head has been spinning since 2007...

[@gwenratner6200]

May be meniere's disease

[@jasonandprincesstravel]

I suffer from it recently. I need cut back on carbs eat more fats and protein like you said eat my carbs last. Losing weight will help.

[@coya4321]

My symptoms starting about 3 weeks in of cutting out all grains..i was not eating any junk food..my body just does not do good on just protein, fat and fruit..now I am going to try adding in rice or something back in and see how I feel..I thought this was mast cell issues as I have that too so time will tell..I wake up shaky and with adrenaline rushes, cramping feet--when I eat I get so anxious, weak and then i just lose my appetite so I have been having a hard time getting enough calories in..my stomach is in knots from this. This could be a mast cell issue that has exacerbated due to seasonal allergies and the diet change or just from the diet change..I had CF for years and I think intermittent fasting was bad for me because once i started a macro app I realized I was only eating about 1000 calories if lucky for years..

[@AddlesH]

I watched the insulin resistance video before I watched this because I’m having trouble losing weight postpartum. But I don’t really have many of those symptoms aside from I’ve always had extreme thirst, and I have all of the hypoglycemic symptoms… I got hypoglycemia from my grandfather we discovered it when I was a kid. I was the only one that would get physically sick and shake if I didn’t eat on time.

[@gavinr5576]

Extreme thirst is a potential symptom of diabetes, which can cause reactive hypoglycemic episodes. Get your insulin resistance checked.

[@AddlesH]

@@gavinr5576 always do and it’s fine. My insulin is just high but A1C is perfectly normal 🤷‍♀️

[@AddlesH]

@@gavinr5576 but when I say I have suffered from extreme thirst literally from my childhood so I’m not sure if that’s just how I am, like more aware of my hydration than most

[@HealthCoachKait]

You should try salting your water. Your thirst could be due to not enough electrolytes and too much water causing and imbalance. 1/2 TSP salt per litre of water is a good place to start. Your body will flush out any excess you don't need. But on another note, your insulin is high which signifies insulin resistance. Hypoglycemia is related (I have a video on this).

[@annon3173]

I have reactive hypoglycaemia (RH) and find no regular medic understands it at all. GP specialist advised to control it by eating every 2.5-3 hrs - small protein heavy “meals”/snacks eg hard boiled egg. If I don’t eat, my insulin levels go sky high- are you sure IF is good idea for RH?

[@Meathead-10810]

My blood sugar goes down to 3.0 every night when I sleep and sometimes in the day after I eat a load of sugar and it's still coming down. I just recently got a cgm sensor and it has been interesting. 5+ Years carnivore now and not worried about the low sugar at all.

[@emmae858]

I was diagnosed as pre diabetic. I’ve noticed that if I don’t eat for 3-4 hours I become nauseous and it’s hard for me to eat. I’ve been working with a dietitian and I’ve tried to change my diet to eat healthier. I just feel like I become nauseous even while eating and the food becomes unappealing to me and my body is telling me to stop eating even when my stomach is grumbling. Do you think this would be a condition starting from diabetes or could maybe be some sort of eating disorder?

[@rickilagozzino1899]

I have Hypoglycemia. Diagnosed when I went into insulin shock and had a seizure. Here is my problem. I don't eat dairy of meat. I am whole food plant based. Any advice? Because I have never liked eating meat.

[@ii289]

All good tips, although going 12 or so hours without eating...not so sure I can do that as blood sugar drops greatly.

[@tdogmom6128]

Great video! I actually how you did the sponsor section as well and will check it out. I IF daily 18-20 hrs and do low carbs. I was curious and checked out your video because I tend to always have low blood sugar levels. This week after dinner I was at 71 however it was my own fault. I am low carbs and IF when I got home from work I felt like having a white claw beverage and I’m sure that was a big part of it - alcohol before dinner. Thanks again for a great video

Yes, sweating is a symptom. I start sweating and get clammy when my glucose is in the 60s. In the 50s I sweat a lot and in the 40s I'm nearly passing out.

@neneroars5891 below 70 is hypoglycemic but it depends on your individual self. Are you experiencing any of those symptoms at 71? If not, you are probably ok. It still wouldn't hurt to talk to your doctor.
