A few weeks ago, Nicole Richie fainted from dehydration on the set of The Simple Life ... But it seems dehydration was only part of her problem.
Nicole's spokesperson has revealed that she suffers from Hypoglycemia, or in simple words an abnormally low level of sugar in the blood.
Hypoglycemia is the body's inability to properly handle the large amounts of sugar that the average American consumes today. It's an overload of sugar, alcohol, caffeine, tobacco & stress.
