Living well with hypoglycemia
Can I live well with hypoglycemia?
As must be abundantly clear so far, hypoglycemia is a very complex
syndrome that most doctors don’t understand, don’t treat
and which many believe to be the product of a troubled mind. That’s the bad news.
The good news is that treatment is easy and you can manage it yourself
if you are unable to find medical help. Best of all, the treatment
is without risk, whether or not you actually have hypoglycemia.
As I’ve stated earlier, the treatment is a change in diet.
The diet of the western world is a nasty combination of sugar,
refined flour (mostly wheat) and more sugar. One study suggests
that Americans eat in the order of 1/4 pound of sugar every day
while other sources quote the amount as 160-210 pounds each year!
The Canadian diet is very similar, so I wouldn’t be surprised
to find similar numbers for all of North America.
Hypoglycemia can be the precursor to Type II diabetes and other
insulin resistance related ailments, but in less than a year you
can turn around the course of your hypoglycemia, and perhaps avert
many of the other serious conditions that may be lying in wait.
The best news of all is that this diet can improve the health of
everyone in your family, and possibly help you all live longer.
