The consequent fall in blood glucose is indicated as the reason for the "sugar crash". [4] Another cause might be hysteresis effect of insulin action, i.e., the effect of insulin is still prominent even if both plasma glucose and insulin levels were already low, causing a plasma glucose level eventually much lower than the baseline level. [5]
What’s more, “chronic glucose elevations” can increase one’s risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, Warshaw says, whereas normal, digestion-related blood sugar spikes do not.
The resulting drop in blood sugar level to below the normal range prompts a hunger response. [citation needed] Polydipsia and polyuria occur when blood glucose levels rise high enough to result in excretion of excess glucose via the kidneys, which leads to the presence of glucose in the urine. This produces an osmotic diuresis. [citation needed]
An image of a continuous glucose monitor attached on the skin. Continuous glucose monitors are another method to measure BG levels. A CGM is a device that sits on the surface of the skin and measures the amount of glucose between the cells with a probe. The device does not directly measure the blood sugar but calculates it based on the sample ...
Sugary drinks also don’t contain fiber, protein, or other nutrients that help regulate blood sugar, he says. That allows them to be quickly absorbed and can lead to more blood sugar spikes.
