[QUOTE="yetta2mymom, post: 1581784, member: 279057"] Hi The standard reactive hypoglycemia is very low blood sugar about 1 hour after eating sugar/starch/alcohol. I speculate that what is happening is that you are supposed to have a short time hormone release into the effects of the insulin release to prevent very low blood sugar. Without the hormones the glucose tolerance curve is up and then straight down. Fortunately, you usually survive the very low sugar episodes as the hormones are produced when the body goes into low sugar emergency followed by the liver changing fat into sugar. [/QUOTE]
