Hypoglycemia and Blood Pressure:
- Hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, does not directly cause high blood pressure.
- The body's response to low blood sugar can lead to temporary changes in blood pressure.
-
Body's Response:
- Stress hormones like adrenaline are released when blood sugar drops.
- This can cause a rapid heartbeat and sweating, potentially leading to a temporary increase in blood pressure.
-
Chronic Hypertension:
- Typically caused by factors such as diet, lifestyle, genetics, or other medical conditions.
-
Recommendation:
- Discuss any symptoms or concerns with your healthcare provider for tailored advice.

Can diabetics drink Boost?
Any store bought drinks although having health benefits, may also have carbohydrates and sugars which can cause sudden increase in blood sugar levels. Diabetics may not be able to control this surge due to their improper insulin in the body. Hence, one must read through the nutritional information before selecting any drink and also consume in moderation. It is always better to have natural fruits in their original form rather than juices or canned or syrups.
