1, symptoms of hypoglycemia
Hypoglycemia refers to the excessive excitement of sympathetic nerve and brain dysfunction caused by blood sugar concentration below a certain level. Severe cases can be in a coma. The patient first had hunger, fatigue, numbness of limbs, emotional anxiety, pallor, dizziness, vomiting, palpitation, chest tightness and so on. In severe cases, the skin is wet and cold, vomiting is unclear, attention is not concentrated, and sometimes convulsions, convulsions, unconsciousness, incontinence, coma, etc.
2. Two types of hypoglycemia
1, adrenergic symptoms include sweating, nervousness, trembling, weakness, dizziness, palpitation, and hunger, which are attributed to increased sympathetic nerve activity and increased adrenaline release (which can occur in patients undergoing adrenalectomy).
2. The manifestations of the central nervous system include confusion, abnormal behavior (which can be mistaken for drunkenness), visual impairment, stupor, coma and epilepsy. Hypoglycemic coma often leads to hypothermia. The rate of blood sugar decrease caused by sympathetic nerve symptoms is faster than that caused by central nerve symptoms, but the degree of hypoglycemia is light. No matter which type, the blood sugar level has obvious individual differences.
3. First aid measures for hypoglycemia
1, absolute bed rest and rapid glucose supplementation are the key to determine the prognosis. Timely sugar supplementation will completely relieve the symptoms; However, delayed treatment will lead to irreversible brain damage. Therefore, it should be emphasized that any substance with high sugar content, such as biscuits and juice, should be given immediately at the time of hypoglycemia attack. In severe cases, attention should be paid to aspiration pneumonia or atelectasis caused by mistakenly inhaling food into the lungs and choking into the trachea.
2, can eat their own hypoglycemia patients, diet should be low sugar, high protein, high fat, eat less and eat more meals, if necessary, add sugar once at midnight.
3. Intravenous injection of 40-60ml of 50% glucose is the most commonly used and effective method to rescue hypoglycemia. If the condition is not serious and severe brain damage is caused by excessive drinking water, the symptoms can be quickly relieved and the mind can be immediately awake.
4, conditional patients should be measured immediately with a blood glucose meter, blood sugar is less than 3. 8 mmol/L, should quickly supplement foods containing carbohydrates, such as half a cup of sweet juice, half a cup of sugar water, 1 tablespoon honey, 3 ~ 5 biscuits, 3 ~ 4 cubes of sugar, 2 ~ 3 candies, etc. 10 ~15 minutes later, if the symptoms have not disappeared, you can take it again.
If the symptoms disappear, but there are still more than 1 hour before the next meal, eat a staple food, such as 1 slice of bread, a steamed bread, 3 to 5 biscuits, etc. In case of unconsciousness and sudden coma, family members should take the patient to the hospital as soon as possible.
4. How to regulate hypoglycemia?
have many meals but little food at each
It is best for patients with hypoglycemia to eat a small amount of meals, and eat about 6 ~ 8 meals a day. Eating a small amount of snacks and snacks before going to bed will also help. In addition, we should alternate food types and don't eat certain foods often, because allergies are often related to hypoglycemia. Food allergy will worsen the condition and make the symptoms more complicated.
balanced diet
The diet should be balanced, containing at least 50-60% carbohydrates (the same dietary principle as diabetics), including vegetables, brown rice, avocado, konjac, seeds, drupes, cereals, lean meat, fish, yogurt and raw cheese.
Foods that should be restricted
Strictly limit the intake of monosaccharides, and try to eat less refined and processed products, such as instant rice and potatoes, white flour, soda, wine and salt. Avoid fruits and juices with high sugar content, for example, grape juice mixed with 50% water. Also eat less macaroni, noodles, gravy, white rice, cornflakes and sweet potatoes. Beans and potatoes can be eaten twice a week.
Increase the high fiber diet
A high-fiber diet helps to stabilize blood sugar concentration. When blood sugar drops, fiber can be combined with protein food (for example, wheat bran cake with raw cheese or almond jam). Eat fresh apples instead of applesauce, the fiber in apples can inhibit the fluctuation of blood sugar, and also add a glass of juice to quickly increase the blood sugar concentration. Fiber itself can also delay the decline of blood sugar. Take fiber half an hour before meals to stabilize blood sugar. Taking spirulina tablets between meals can further stabilize the blood sugar concentration.
Eat more grains.
Barley, oats, buckwheat, high grain, brown rice, wheat bran, barley, etc.
Eat more vegetables.
Bamboo shoots are suitable for eating more, such as carrots, green beans, cowpeas, bean sprouts, leeks, garlic sprouts, daylily, Chinese toon cabbage, cauliflower, celery, water bamboo, lettuce, pepper and so on.
