Question

The condition of low blood glucose due to excess insulin release regardless of food intake is:

a. hyperglycemia.
b. postprandial hypoglycemia.
c. fasting hypoglycemia.
d. reactive hypoglycemia.

Answer 1

Reactive hypoglycemia is the condition of low blood glucose due to excess insulin release regardless of food intake.

Step-by-step explanation:

The condition of low blood glucose due to excess insulin release regardless of food intake is reactive hypoglycemia. After a meal, blood glucose levels become elevated, stimulating beta cells of the pancreas to release insulin into the blood. Excess glucose is then converted to glycogen in the liver, reducing blood glucose levels.
