What causes hypoglycemia?
Reactive hypoglycemia: The diet connection
We are beginning to understand that most, if not all, of those
cases of hypoglycemia for which the cause has been listed “unknown”
can be explained by the North American Diet. The past 100 years
has seen us go from whole grains to over processed white bread,
and from water to soda pop. That has to have an effect on our overall
health, and this chapter will explain how our over processed and
over refined diet has been the primary cause of hypoglycemia, insulin
resistance and the mysteriously named “Syndrome X”.
Insulin resistance and Syndrome X have been implicated in high blood
pressure, heart disease and diabetes.
Insulin resistance and Syndrome X have both been “discovered”
in the past 15-20 years and they turn out to be part of the chain
of events leading from hypoglycemia to diabetes, heart disease and
even cancer.
Today’s family is always on the go, and shopping and cooking
take second place to making a living and spending quality time with
loved ones.
Sounds like an ad for convenience food, doesn’t it? Does
“quality food” have to take second place to “quality
time”? Do we have to use pre-packaged foods to meet our schedule?
What are we eating?!
