Love Diabetes: Dangerous Liaisons of Cheating and Hypoglycemia
Posted by admin on Oct 15, 2009
How does blood glucose affect our emotions? As a person with diabetes and self-professed emotional dyslexia – these are uncharted waters I’d like to navigate. On “Oprah” today, she met with a therapist who wrote a book on why people cheat. The majority of cheaters felt they were not being duly appreciated rewarded in the relationship. Hypoglycemia impairs the middle brain from dispatching important “feel good” messages. I feel thieved! So how does one master the duplicity of intentional suppression of blood glucose (hypoglycemia) at the cost of an impaired emotional reward system?

what is the relationship between hypoglycemia and coffe?
Posted by admin on Oct 15, 2009
I have hypoglycemia. When I drink coffee, my blood sugar levels seem to drop in relation. Can anyone tell me if this is causal?
Quick answer: maybe. Current evidence suggests that caffine enhances the warning symptoms, rather than causing a drop in blood sugar levels.
At this time, the evidence is not quite strong enough to be, _scientifically speaking_, considered causal — especially in a non-diabetic person. However, the preliminary evidence is very suggestive of such a link.
EVIDENCE:
In a man with diabetes, "excessive coffee ingestion was associated with marked hyperglycaemia." (#1 – case report of only one individual)
"In type 1 diabetes, caffeine has been reported to enhance the symptomatic and hormonal responses to hypoglycaemia." (#1)
"Ingestion of modest amounts of caffeine enhances the intensity of hypoglycemia warning symptoms in patients with type 1 diabetes without altering the prevailing standard of glycemic control or increasing the incidence of severe hypoglycemic episodes." (#2. Only 34 patients in test: not a large enough population for making a causal link.)
"In healthy volunteers and patients with type 1 diabetes, acute ingestion of modest amounts of caffeine (250-400 mg, which is equivalent to 2-4 cups of drip-brewed coffee) markedly enhances the intensity of warning symptoms and the usual hormonal counterregulatory response to clamped hypoglycemia under laboratory conditions. However, although the perception of hypoglycemia is augmented by prior caffeine ingestion, whether low blood glucose levels will become associated with warning symptoms if caffeine is used on a daily basis is unclear." (#2. The time frame was only three months, again, not sufficient for a conclusive connection.)

Is there are difference between hypoglycemia and hyperinsulinemia?
Posted by admin on Oct 12, 2009
I was diagnosed with hypoglycemia a few months ago, but is it the same as hyperinsulinemia?
hyperinsulinemia leads to hypoglycemia, but hypoglycemia may mean you’re simply just not eating enough or often enough. hyperinsulinemia is producing too much insulin, resulting in high blood insulin levels. hypoglycemia means not enough sugar in the blood, or low blood sugar.

What do you do about night time non-diabetic hypoglycemia?
Posted by admin on Oct 9, 2009
I have heard that non-diabetic hypoglycemia can be a problem at night while I am sleeping. What can I do to prevent this from happening?
Treating hypoglycemia is pretty much the same as treating type two diabetes. In other words, eat lots of healthy, natural foods with plenty of fiber and get plenty of daily exercise. The more refined foods you avoid, the better your chances of avoiding hypoglycemia (and diabetes, for that matter). Give your body the nourishment it needs, and it will serve you well for many, many years.
