In general, hypoglycemia is actually due to a drop of blood sugar. I am also hupoglycemic. So, yes, you need protein to sustain and regulate you system, but protein alone won\u2019t help with the leg cramps. It sounds like you need to replenish potassium, magnesium, and calcium. A good way to do this is though bananas, Kale, yogurt, etc. stuff high in the \u201cums\u201d. In general, strive to always pair sugar/carbs with protein to keep your blood sugar regulated and try to do smaller snacks throughout the day instead of just big meals. Your body will process everything better.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>
