low blood sugar levels? but i dont have diabetes? is there anything i

[thisisveryodd]

should do? should i increase sugar? i recently had a blood test which ruled out anything serious, but the doctor said i do have pretty low blood sugar levels.

i have to go back for another test, but does this mean i need to like add more sugar to my diet? i recently cut out A LOT in my tea and coffee e.t.c, do you think this could be my body reacting to it? would it be better to still have the odd sugar in my tea? i dont understand it...and i dont have time to go back for another blood test till a couple of weeks.

do you have any advice, or do you suffer from it? any help would be greatly appreciated, as i often feel weak and tired. is there partiuclar foods i should eat?

No, you do NOT need to go back to eating sugar. Basically, the foods that you eat are broken down into simple sugars ... glucose being the one that is measured when you're testing someone's blood sugar level.

As has already been mentioned, what you need to do is eat several small meals throughout the day. Not just breakfast, lunch and dinner, but snacks in between those main meals.

Sugar, as you might put into your drinks, are basically wasted calories. What's not used by the cells of your body accumulate as fat. I'm sure that you don't want to go down that route.

No. do not go back for more sugar. Low blood sugar means that you probably get pretty tired feeling around 2 p.m. every day, for one thing. This is a good time for you to have a banana. You may awaken grouchy. When you feel grouchy for no reason, have a spoon full of peanut butter to help you feel 'nicer'. Hypoglycemia is what you can look up on the web. It will help you to understand that this is easily taken care of with your food intake. Eating 6 small meals or snacks a day will help you, a LOT.
