Thank you for your reply. Milk does contain milk sugars, so I only have about 3-4 ounces and always with a fiberous meal and protein. Most often, I have V-8 juice as it is very low in the glycemic index. What do you mean, referring to 'zapping'? I plan on having mycortisol levels checked next month, when I am financially able. Let me know how your results turn out.
