Postprandial reactive hypoglycemia is the medical term for this condition;
postprandial means the symptoms occur after a meal and reactive means they happen in response to food stimulation as opposed to a fasting state
Causes:
1) adrenaline release and 2) glucose deprivation of the nervous system.

Low blood sugar stimulates the release of adrenaline, which causes shakiness, sweating, hunger pangs, nervousness and irritability. When your brain doesn't get enough sugar, you get headache, mental dullness, and fatigue. If the blood sugar gets low enough, a person can get confused, have visual problems, develop a seizure or even become unconscious
