--Hooray for Robin!--Success Testimonial--Hypoglycemia--
Hi Robin,
Your question: Hi moreless, long time no speak! Have changed my username as couldn't remember any of my details and last computer packed up!
Hope you are well and still helping lots of people!
I am still on your low (meat based) protein diet and have not had recurrence of hypoglycemia. Have made phenomenal changes in my life and my family's thanks to advice on your forum.
I am currently in psycotherapy for treatment of long standing social anxiety disorder (I have finished that bit now and I feel great)). We also established my constipation is a stress response and have removed all thought related causes - this has left us with what is basically a mood disorder relating to impaired digestion.
I tried to relay to him yesterday information you gave to me some time ago on this forum but I couldn't remember the finer points and couldn't find the original message.
You talked about the release of a particular acid (I think it began with the letter H) during impaired protein digestion that floods the body and causes a fight/flight response that can last up to 24 hours or longer depending on the amount released. You described it in relation (i think) to nuts in particular. I was amazed at the time at your incredibly accurate description of my mood change and the nature of it (e.g, irritability etc) i have also found this mood change to happen consistently when you predicted it would.
My therapist is very interested in this information as he treats people with mood disorders regularly and would like to know more.
I am now undergoing hypnosis to help me kick my more unhealthy habits and help me stabilize on the right diet since i have not been too careful when the treatment for social anxiety disorder was so intense. (I know - eating the right food would have made it less intense!).
Any info you can recall will be of great benefit - many thanks.
