Scientists map how a sugar crash stresses your brain

NCT ID NCT03867344

Summary

This study aimed to understand how a physical stressor—low blood sugar—affects the brain and nervous system. Researchers looked at 74 healthy adults to see which brain connections are involved in controlling automatic body functions like heart rate during this stress. The goal was to gather basic knowledge about stress recovery, not to test a treatment.
