Message definition (Hypoglycemia)
When blood sugar levels fall to the low-normal range, the first line of defense against hypoglycemia is decreasing [[insulin]] release by the [[pancreas]]. This drop in insulin allows the [[liver]] to increase [[glycogenolysis]]. [[Glycogenolysis]] is the process of [[glycogen]] breakdown that results in the production of glucose. [[Glycogen]] can be thought of as the inactive, storage form of glucose. Decreased insulin also allows for increased [[gluconeogenesis]] in the [[liver]] and [[kidney]]s. [[Gluconeogenesis]] is the process of glucose production from non-[[carbohydrate]] sources, supplied from muscles and fat.
