Description Hypoglycemia is condition that results when blood sugar levels are low. After eating, blood sugar levels normally rise as food is digested. As blood sugar levels drop, insulin levels subside, and stored sugar is released from the liver into the bloodstream. Even when they do not eat, most people maintain a relatively constant blood sugar level, somewhere between 60 to 100 milligrams per deciliter of blood. In a small number of people, however, this mechanism of transporting blood sugar does not work properly and blood sugar levels fall too low.
