About four years ago on a sunny morning in December, I fell on a sidewalk in front of a store parking lot, and broke my wrist. I did have a woozy feeling before the fall. But I thought a slightly elevated cement slab on the walkway was to blame for the painful mishap.
Now after four long years, I, not diabetic, finally, through the hard ways, learned of the real culprit of this preventable accident.
I remember the day before I fell on my face, I gave myself a rare treat - a large milk shake. This popular drink made with ice cream, milk and strawberry syrup is loaded with sugars.
And we all know too much sweets in our diet can cause low blood sugar or hypoglycemia in us. Among many discomforts and other aliments associated with not having enough glucose in our blood stream, dizziness and light-headed feeling had led many of us to fall suddenly and hurt ourselves. In some cases, low blood sugar can render us unconsciousness. - Ayee
