Abstract
Managing Diabetes and Hypoglycemia (Low Blood Sugar)
Over the past 25 years, diabetes has been on the rise, and many patients with diabetes face the risk of hypoglycemia or low blood sugar. Although most drops in blood sugar levels are minor and easily corrected, when left untreated, the condition can cause loss of consciousness and/or seizures, requiring emergency care. The best way to avoid such episodes is through education and lifestyle modifications. Below are listed some of the symptoms and warning signs of hypoglycemia, along with suggestions for lifestyle changes that help control blood sugar levels.
