Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fasting hypoglycemia is defined by low blood glucose levels after not eating (fasting), typically in the morning, with levels less than 70 mg/dL indicating hypoglycemia. It is not exclusive to diabetes and can occur in various situations, including after critical illness or binge drinking, due to the body's depleted glycogen stores and impaired glucose production.
