You can eat anything when you have low blood sugar, but the first choice is to choose foods with fast glycemic index and high sugar content, such as candy, glucose, sugary cakes, honey water and so on.
However, if the blood sugar is not particularly low, you can choose something with a relatively low glycemic index, such as steamed bread and apples.
If patients take acarbose, an α -glucosidase inhibitor, because it can delay the absorption of carbohydrates, and the hypoglycemia caused by its combination with other drugs is generally not recommended, it is suggested that intravenous glucose may be more appropriate.
The definition of hypoglycemia is that adults can be diagnosed as hypoglycemia when their fasting blood glucose is less than 2.8 mmol/L. Its clinical symptoms are palpitation and sweating in the early stage. If hypoglycemia is difficult to be corrected, it may even lead to brain damage and even brain obstruction.
The treatment of hypoglycemia is mainly to find the reasons:
First, whether there are endocrine reasons, such as excessive insulin secretion, the most common is insulinoma, and hyperthyroidism.
Second, do you have diabetes? Patients with diabetes are also prone to hypoglycemia because they often take hypoglycemic drugs.
After the organic diseases are ruled out, if hypoglycemia still occurs, it is mainly through diet conditioning. The first thing to do is to regularly, quantitatively and order meals. Don't eat less because the meal is not delicious. At the same time, you can put some snacks, such as bread, biscuits and candy, in your hand or pocket, and eat some snacks quickly to raise blood sugar in your body when hypoglycemia symptoms appear.
There are many causes that can cause hypoglycemia. If it is serious, there is still no good food that can be completely adjusted. Hypoglycemia is still focused on prevention.
Patients with hypoglycemia should pay attention to maintain good eating habits and have regular meals a day, which can stimulate the secretion of various digestive juices and digestive enzymes in a timely, effective and regular manner. Usually, they can eat foods with high sugar content properly and carry snacks with them, such as candy or biscuits, which can be used as a supplement between two meals or eaten in time when hypoglycemia occurs to relieve discomfort.
Hypoglycemia is related to diabetes, drugs, pancreatic diseases and many other reasons. It is best to go to the hospital for examination in time, and make clear the cause before symptomatic treatment.
It is best to strengthen physical exercise at ordinary times, which can enhance physical fitness, promote metabolism and increase disease resistance. It is best to supplement energy before exercise to avoid hypoglycemia.
