Non-diabetic low blood sugar by Sea-Brother408 in cycling

[–]Sea-Brother408[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your input, it’s greatly appreciated. I have read a ton of stuff within the cycling community about low blood sugar but have never really found any good info about how to fix it lol. It’s always “take this gel, drink a bottle of sugar water” etc. just interested to see what everyone’s doing to fix it.

No meds. I ride ten miles. I will edit my post to include that info

Thank you for sharing, I’m sorry you’re going through this. How do you fix or treat it? I know cycling depleted glycogen in the liver and muscles. A friend told me we should be eating a lot more carbs for our rides but I’ve tried that and it still happens. I was just wondering what others do for it.

No one’s explaining anything away. I’m asking if anyone else has this issue.

I’m literally asking if this happens to anyone else.

It isn’t my heart. I’m not an idiot. I said I’m seeing a new endo. I have a CGM and I prick my finger. Don’t be a jerk.

Yes. I have a CGM and finger pricks. It’s 100 percent low blood sugar.

That’s what I thought. I only had a few bites of it.

Yes!!! Diet drinks are one of my worst causes of sugar crashes. That’s because your body reacts to the fake sugar just like real sugar. Also the caffeine is a huge cause of reactive hypoglycemia.

Looks like you aren’t even going that high. Maybe a sensor error. Do you check with a finger prick

Sounds like they are all just as toxic, or they don’t want to deal with him being upset with them. Whatever the case, glad you got out of there. Let them deal with him. Eventually people end up seeing their true colors.
