Would Low-carb diet make you hypoglycemic?
I'd say that depends on your insulin level... but I'm not sure on that.
Depends what you mean by hypoglycemic. In a healthy people, your blood sugar is tightly regulated somewhere between 70-120 mg/dl.

If you have either type 1 or 2 diabetes, you'd have to adjust your insulin level. Having said that, some doctors recommend low-carb diet to type 1 DM patients (ie. book called "Dr Bernstein's diabetic solution).
