Because of hypoglycine A

Hypoglycin A, which is now simply called hypoglycin, is metabolized by means of transamination and oxidative decarboxylation to methylene cyclopropyl acetic acid (MCPA). MCPA forms nonmetabolizable carnitine and coenzyme A (CoA) esters, thereby depressing tissue levels of these cofactors and making them less available for other biochemical reactions. Hypoglycemia results because both CoA and carnitine are necessary cofactors for long-chain fatty acid oxidation and because oxidation is a requisite for active gluconeogenesis
