Individuals who are bothered by symptoms of reactive hypoglycaemia are under a chronic stress of one sort or another. All primates have a powerful system for coping with stress. It is called the fight-flight syndrome. Blood sugar levels increase dramatically in response to a stressful situation. organic herbal products Unlike our ancestors, however, we do not fight, we do not hunt and we do not run. Our stress responses no longer require a physical response e.g. when you are stuck in a traffic jam, mortgage demands, demands at work. However, the body still produces the same chemical response to organic herbal products these stresses. For our ancestors and other primates it is the physical energy that uses up the extra sugar that pours into our bloodstream. We now have to restore that balance via the same process described above; the pancreas learns to secrete very large amounts of insulin rapidly lowering blood organic herbal products sugar levels and over­stimulating the adrenal glands leading to adrenal exhaustion and reactive hypoglycaemia. To further aggravate the complexity of the situation, stress depletes vitamin B complex and vitamin C, both of which are necessary for proper adrenal function, in addition to which vitamin B complex is an essential nutrient organic herbal products in the metabolism of carbohydrates. In turn, the carbohydrates have already been stripped of vitamin B complex in the refining process therefore need extra vitamin B complex for utilisation.

Food intolerance: There is some evidence to show that specific foods can actually produce an abnormally low or high blood organic herbal products sugar, irrespective of the carbohydrate content of the food.

Stimulants-Although they do not contain sugar as such, stimulants such as coffee, tea, chocolate, alcohol and cigarette smoking have much the same effect as sugar because they stimulate the liver to release stores of glucose into the blood. Once again organic herbal products blood sugar levels rise along with your energy level. Very often coffee, tea, alcohol drinkers and cigarette smokers require a ´topping up´ every hour or so with a blast of their stimulant. But the effect is short-lived and in the long-term the regular use of such stimulants leads to lower organic herbal products energy levels as your blood sugar level reduces as a result of excess insulin production. Of course adding sugar to these drinks further adds to the problem.

Irregular eating-Missing meals or fasting will cause blood sugar levels to fall to the lower end of the normal range for some organic herbal products susceptible individuals.

diet and lifestyle recommendations

To maintain a stable level of sugar in the blood throughout the day it is important to control the intake of foods that stimulate the production of too much insulin.

The first step is to replace your refined carbohydrates with complex organic herbal products carbohydrates (unrefined) such as whole grains, legumes and starchy vegetables. In addition to this, according to recent research by Dr Gerald Reaven popularised in the book ´The Zone´ (see reading list) , your proteinlcarbohydrate ratio at each meal must also be carefully balanced. Whilst such slow-release carbohydrates indicated above are organic herbal products much better than refined carbohydrates they still, taken alone, can cause a peak in blood sugar and an excess insulin production. However, by eating a balance of protein along with carbohydrates, blood sugar levels remain much more stable. Practically speaking this means eating some nuts along with a piece of organic herbal products fruit, tofu with rice, or fish with potatoes. You may need to experiment with your diet to determine your protein needs. See if a breakfast of turkey and steamed carrots (or tofultempeh and carrots) helps you to feel and function better. Taking a protein powder mixed in a drink several organic herbal products times a day may help, this can be especially useful and convenient as a between meals boost or a light meal.

Try to minimise the use of dried fruits and concentrated fruit juices, which are all considered rapidly absorbable. Cooking or soaking dried fruits is an acceptable alternative. Cook organic herbal products a small amount with whole-grain cereals or soak them and use the soaking water as sweetness for any baked dishes or, in moderation, in blender drinks. Fruit juice, if taken at all, should be diluted 80% with water. Be careful not to overeat fresh fruit. Initially one piece of fruit organic herbal products a day may be all you can tolerate although in more severe cases less may be advisable. As you improve you can add back more fruit. If you are trying to kick a sugar habit, fresh fruit is a good alternative whenever you are craving something sweet. Eventually you will organic herbal products be able to get by with less fruit until your condition stabilises. When fruit is eaten, ensure that you consume a protein source with it such as nuts, cottage cheese or yoghurt.
