Answer:

When blood sugar drops too low, the level of insulin declines and other cells in the pancreas release glucagon, which causes the liver to turn stored glycogen back into glucose and release it into the blood. This brings blood sugar levels back up to normal.

Answer:

Glucose is a sugar that comes from the foods we eat, and it's also formed and stored inside the body. It's the main source of energy for the cells of our body, and is carried to each cell through the bloodstream. Our brains depend on glucose to function, even when we're sleeping.

The blood glucose level is the amount of glucose in the blood. When these levels (also called blood sugar levels) drop too low, it's called hypoglycemia (pronounced: high-poe-gly-SEE-me-uh). Very low blood sugar levels can cause serious symptoms that need to be treated right away.

Low Blood Sugar Levels in Diabetes

People with diabetes can have low blood sugar levels because of the medicines they have to take to manage their diabetes. They may need a hormone called insulin or diabetes pills (or both) to help their bodies use the sugar in their blood.

These medicines help take the sugar out of the blood and get it into the body's cells, which makes the blood sugar level go down. But sometimes it's a tricky balancing act and blood sugar levels can get too low.

People with diabetes need to keep their blood sugars from getting too high or too low. Keeping blood sugar levels in a healthy range means balancing when and what they eat, and when they exercise with when they take medicines.

Hope this helps...;-]
