Hypoglycemia
Deficiency of glucose in the bloodstream
Explanation
Hypoglycemia is basically low blood sugar. After eating, your blood absorbs glucose. If you eat more sugar than your body needs, your liver stores the extra. When blood sugar levels begin to fall, hormones tell your liver to release glucose. This causes blood sugar to rise. That doesn't happen in people with hypoglycemia. Their blood sugar can become dangerously low.
Symptoms
Symptoms include hunger, shakiness, dizziness, confusion, difficulty speaking, anxiety, and weakness.
