Quoted By:
The medical word for low blood sugar is hypoglycemia.
3-4 mmol/L: Irritability, confusion, intense hunger.
2-3 mmol/L: physical weakness and shakiness.
1-2 mmol/L: Involuntary muscle spasms, inability to think or talk clearly.
< 1 mmol/L: Seizures and blackouts.
0 mmol/L: Death or brain damage depending on how long it lasts. Zero blood sugar is as critical as zero oxygen. The reason you breath is so your cells can burn blood sugar.
Blood sugar does not mean table sugar. Your digestive system extracts glucose (blood sugar) from everything you eat. Foods like table sugar digests into a lot of glucose very quickly .
