Lightbulb if you have hypoglycemia* -or you are a diabetic*

New test for hypoglycemia...
there is a better test they give you now -
the old test was a glucose tolerance test which was dangerous,
~~~~~~~~

if you can distinguish the body needs sugar and fuel, [FOOD]
you may do better with the medications

hypoglycemics make too much insulin
if you drink for breakfast tea or coffee with sugar, or fruit juices
or soy yogurt, or organic yogurt w/ fruit
or a yogurt smoothie
it is good after the rise of sugar to balance it -
it would be better if you had a breakfast burritto with beans and rice -
than our breakfast of eggs & bacon, (personally it makes me ill)

~~~~~~~~~~

now diabetics - need a different approach to keep their sugars down,
they do not make much insulin -
oatmeal lowers blood sugar so it is better for diabetics,

____________

1.A polypeptide hormone secreted by the islets of Langerhans and functioning in the regulation of the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats, especially the conversion of glucose to glycogen, which lowers the blood glucose level.

Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant with the weak and the wrong. Sometime in your life you will have been all of these.
