I love playing with my sister, painting, reading stories… and many more things!
But sometimes, I must be quiet because I feel sick.
Adults say it happens because my blood sugar drops…
The Hippo House is a meeting point for families living with hypoglycemia, especially non-diabetic low blood sugars.
The Hippo House is born because we are also living with the sugar drops, and we understand perfectly what it means in your day to day…
That’s why we want to put our ‘two cents’ for those families like ours!
For our bodies to function properly we need energy. Normally this energy is provided by an essential sugar called glucose…
In order not to have to be continually eating, we have different energy stores distributed throughout the body.
And we also have a very sophisticated mechanism that controls all the processes so that you always feel well…
In this disease, insulin is ‘blind’ to the blood glucose level. For this reason, it continues to be secreted even though the body is running out of energy …

We dream of a world where hypoglycemia doesn’t exist…
And we know that it will take a long time to come!
Meanwhile, we have many other wishes that we want to share with you…
Prepare the watering can! All little drops counting…
