It is never good, but my endo told me that "normal" blood glucose levels are 70 to 100..He doesn't want it to drop below 70. Yes, it is bad even if you aren't on insulin. I am type 2 and my brother is the opposite. His blood sugar will be high and then drop like a rock, so he has to eat several small meals a day to keep it in normal range. If his blood sugar drops, he will get a headache, blurred vision and tunnel vision and then black out. So, low blood sugar can be just as bad as high blood sugar. I hope this helps.
