Dizziness or Lightheadedness
Lightheadedness makes a person feel nauseous, sweaty, and unsteady to the point of almost fainting. It may be caused by various reasons, including ear disturbance, medication, motion sickness, dehydration, low blood pressure, and blood sugar levels. It can also affect a lack of blood in the brain. Lightheadedness should not be taken lightly since it can lead to incidents and injuries.
When the body does not have enough glucose, the brain sends signals to every organ system to go on reserve. This means that the body’s organs use as little energy as possible, including the brain. As a result, a person with low blood sugar levels can feel dizzy, confused, and lightheaded.
Blood sugar levels usually drop late at night or early in the morning. Eating a light snack and rest is best if a person feels dizzy or lightheaded during these times. If the dizziness doesn’t go away 20 minutes after eating, consult a doctor immediately.
