Re: blood pressure, blood sugar
For low blood sugar, follow the protocol below. This works well with the Plan. This can help to stabilize blood pressure at a healthier level.
If you get tired, irritable, sleepy, or moody when you go too long without food, you most likely have a low blood sugar issue (hypoglycemia). Hypoglycemia can affect the following: estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and thyroid; suppress the immune system; cause adrenal fatigue and sugar cravings and promote inflammation; cause a lot of different disturbances in the nervous system such as anxiety, depression, nervousness, etc. You’ll need to eat at least a small handful of food every 45-60 minutes. That can be 1/3 of a celery stick or carrot, ¼ of an apple, ½ of an avocado, a rice cake, a meal, some veggies, etc., to keep your blood sugar balanced. It is very important that you follow this strictly, as almost doesn’t work. Anyone with problems handling fruit, should stick to celery, meats, etc., for snacks. Celery is very easy to prepare and carry with you. Plan your day around having enough of something with you at all times. As an example - if you eat breakfast at 8am, then snack at 9, 10, 11; lunch at 12; snack at 1, 2, 3, 4; dinner at 5; snack at 6, 7, 8, 9, 10; bed. It is important to do this for at least 4 months. Additionally, it’s important to start the day with protein and have protein at every meal.
