Hi guys, recently I had a person who wanted to know what causes tremors and they did not

have Parkinson's or some type of brain degenerative disease. They just had this tremor on one hand.

So, I pulled up my trusty favorite book called Sibletan Collection of Medical Illustrations

Volume 4 Endocrinology. Now in this book, I mainly have been studying the adrenal function

and other endocrin glands, but I recently dove into the pancreas and the function of

insulin, which is fascinating, but I wanted to use a credible physiology book with lots of

pictures because, think about physiology, it doesn't keep changing. They know how the body

works and there might be some minor things over the years that have been evolved or tweaked,

but typically it's an unchanging science. But here's what it talks about in this book. And here's

what I found. One of the causes of tremors is neuronal irritability, which makes a lot of sense

because if you irritate the nervous system, you're going to create a tremor effect. Now what causes

this is low blood sugars. Now that can come from high insulin, but when the blood sugars are

lower, the nervous system suffers greatly and definitely the brain suffers. What happens is when

your blood sugars go too low, your body will counter it with epinephrine or another name for that

be adrenaline to actually quickly raise the blood sugars. And it's the quick release of epinephrine

that causes this symptom right here. Now, there's some other symptoms of hypoglycemia and that would

be anxiety, sweating. Well, we just mentioned tremors. Tachycardia increase pulse rate, weakness,

mental confusion, headaches, and depression, and lethargy. Now, if you're experiencing any of

these or tremors, start doing research in the area of hypoglycemia and low blood sugars and I think

you'll find the answer. Thanks for watching.
