Hypoglycemia and insulin resistance occur together frequently. Patients with diabetes who have insulin resistance can have low blood sugar levels. When cells do not respond properly to insulin, the body reacts by creating more insulin. The overproduction of insulin causes blood sugar levels to drop too low. High levels of insulin can cause serious health consequences. According to Ei-Resource.org, anytime a hormone in our body is chronically raised, the cells that react to it become less and less sensitive to it.

Our bodies were not meant to deal with a constant flow of simple sugars. Simple sugars require little or no digestion, and therefore are absorbed into the bloodstream quickly. This requires a rapid insulin response. Eventually it results in hypoglycemia and insulin resistance. This insulin resistance leads to type-2 diabetes if simple sugars are consumed on a regular basis. This is why one should avoid eating refined carbohydrates and …
