What can cause dizziness brought on by heat and or exercise?
Dizziness brought on by heat or exercise can be caused by dehydration and/or low blood sugar. (Since this was originally put in the Migraine category, I will also answer that both dehydration as well as low blood sugar can trigger migraines, and migraines can cause dizziness. Also, there is something known as Exercise Induced Headache, whereby just by doing exercise can trigger an intense headache. Dizziness may be a part of that headache as well.)

What is the risk of exercise with diabetes?
Exercise calls upon blood sugar resources, and also causes the body to release and consume more blood sugar. This means that it can cause blood glucose levels to rise OR to fall OR not to change much, depending on the individual and sometimes the circumstances. Since diabetics need to be able to predict and control their blood sugar, unpredictable bouts of exercise can lead to unusually low or high blood sugar. Keeping exercise predictable and routine, and knowing their own body's reaction to it, is the best answer for a diabetic.
Why does exercise have an insulin-like effect?
Exercise lowers blood sugar in a similar way to insulin, as the body uses the sugar in respiration, allowing the body to move, enabling its participation in exercise.
What is the relationship between exercise and diabetes?
