Blood sugar dysregulation denotes that there is irregularity in blood sugar stability. This can include low blood glucose levels (hypoglycemia) and high blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia). Such imbalances have been linked with several mood, behavioral, cognitive, and physical health issues. Research has also found that blood sugar dysregulation may play a role in criminality.

This program examines the impact blood sugar dysregulation has on clinical and forensic mental health populations and its implications for physical health, behavior, mood, cognition, and criminality. Implications for intake, screening, and intervention are highlighted through a clinical and forensic mental health lens. Empirically based research findings are highlighted throughout this program.
