yes it is it's like smoking
Yes indeed. Your body has adjusted its insulin levels for the accustomed sugar that you have been consuming. When the insulin is no longer needed at such high levels, you will have withdrawal symptoms when the sugar is withdrawn. Be ready for headaches, edginess, and even aches and pains until your body readjusts to normal insulin levels as you withdraw.
One tip. If you gradually withdraw, especially keeping a hard candy around as a withdrawal tool, it will be easier during the first couple of days. The hard candy has less effect than a sugary drink or a quantity of other sugary products. Since the sugar is less than the other products, it can help with those headaches and keep your disposition more balanced during the first stages.

When eating six meals a day does it take a while for your body to adjust and is it normal to feel like your blood sugar drops even quicker between meals?
Generally, eating six meals a day instead of just three ensures that your blood sugar does NOT drop between meals. I'm wondering what your symptoms are when you say it "feels" like your blood sugar is dropping. If you went from eating junk food to eating healthy six meals, you could be going through temporary food withdrawal. Your body may be ajusting to less sugar, caffeine, etc. in the form of dizziness, headaches, etc. I'm not sure if you're on a new diet, etc. but eating protein and carbs together maintains blood sugar (the carbs maintain the blood sugar and the protein digests slower so it maintains the level of carbs and sugar for a longer period of time -- so crackers and cheese will maintain your blood sugar levels longer than just crackers alone).
Would eating candy help maintain a normal blood sugar level?
Eating candy will affect a persons blood sugar level. If they are feeling particularly tired or dizzy, a bit of candy might provide relief and assist in bringing their blood sugar back to normal levels.
What foods help with sugar withdrawal?
You should be eating complex carbs like whole grains and vegetables to compensate for not getting as much sugar. If you are having a real problem, try eating baked potatoes (can microwave one in 6 minutes) but try to get used to eating them with apple cider vinegar to lower their glycemic index.
Is there such a thing as a candy addict?
Sugar can definitely be mood-altering. Whether or not it can amount to a full-blown addiction is arguable, since there are no measurable withdrawal symptoms to indicate physical dependence (provided that the person has otherwise normal blood sugar).However, a compulsion to eat sweets can be an indication of approaching diabetes. The sugar use needs to be brought under control, and we would strongly urge anyone who believes they are "addicted" to sugar to immediately see a doctor for a blood glucose screening.
What's a normal blood sugar range?
A normal blood sugar range will vary from person to person depending on age, health and at what time of day they are tested. Typically a normal range is between 70 and 110 milligrams or 140 milligrams immediately after eating.
Can a person have Delirium Tremors after 12 days from the time they stopped drinking?
They can. Withdrawal symptoms of alcohol can last a couple of months (some of it is due to sugar withdrawal; alcohol contains a lot of sugar and suddenly not consuming that amount of sugar can create some odd side-effects on the body). However liver damage can also cause tremors, so if they get worse or goes on for too long, get it checked out. (Particularly if a raised temperature is also involved).
What does 90mg/dL mean on a blood sugar chart?
A blood glucose measurement determines the amount of sugar or glucose in the blood. A normal blood sugar reading before eating is between 70 to 90mg/dL. Provided you did not have anything to eat prior to the test, your blood sugar level reading is in the normal range.
