More on blood Sugar and how it works:
- You eat or drink excess Sugar (the average American consumes well over 100 lbs/yr.).
- The body releases insulin to put Sugar into storage, but the insulin response is excessive (due to ADAPTATION and/or chromium deficiency).
- About 2 hours later so much sugar has been put into storage that there is not enough left in the blood, and you get a low-blood-sugar emergency.
Symptoms such as weakness and mental fog begin.
- The body responds to the emergency by dumping adrenaline into the system.
More symptoms follow from the high adrenaline, such as racing heart, anxiety, etc., etc., etc..
- The roller coaster rises and falls in critical hormones, causing an unbalance in all the hormones and often resulting in ongoing symptoms.
Many Americans have hypoglycemia to a greater or less degree. The symptoms comprise a remarkably long list and range from mild discomfort to being completely incapacitated.
Mental Symptoms
- Anxiety - ranging from constant worry to panic attacks.
- Phobias - claustrophobia, agoraphobia, acrophobia, and so on. This is anxiety tied to a particular issue.
- Nervousness
- Restlessness
- Irritability
- Depression - especially with females
- Violent outbursts - especially with males
- Obsessive Compulsive Behavior
- Forgetfulness - this may just be choline/inositol deficiency.
- Inability to concentrate
- Unsocial, Asocial, Anti-Social behavior
- Crying spells
- Nightmares & night terrors - terror can continue after you wake up. It is especially indicative of hypoglycemia if you wake in a cold sweat, if the terror continues, if there is pressure on the chest, or if you are unable to breathe.
Physical Symptoms
- Headaches - especially if a meal is missed.
- Tachycardia - racing pulse due to high adrenaline.
- Fatigue, weakness, "rubbery" legs.
- Tremor or trembling of arm, leg, or whole body (outside or inside)
- Twitching, jerking, or cramping of a leg muscle - cramping may be just calcium or magnesium deficiency or food allergy response.
- Waking after 2-3 hrs sleep
- Tinnitus - ringing in the ear, due to high insulin in about 70 % of tinnitus cases.
- Abnormal weight - too high or too low.
