[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 817680, member: 85785"] Hi, a high GI or carb or sugar anything would quickly spike me. I get real quick escalation of my blood glucose levels. I've had over 12mmols from normal fasting levels, within an hour. Then it slows down gradually, then I hypo. I do go from hyper to hypo, within 4 hours. That is why low carb is essential in controlling your RH condition. If you don't give your glucose levels any reason to escalate you won't hypo. That is what has helped me lead a 'normal' life and helped me lose weight and be free from them horrible symptoms. I am fitter than for a long time. Sweet potato is full of carbs, I just stay away from anything like that. The only tests that confirms diagnosis is fasting tests, prolonged OGGT and 72 hours fasting. They can only be done properly in a hospital. If you have a hypo, eat a plain biscuit, then when you return to normal levels, have a very low carb small meal. Anything else, please ask. [/QUOTE]
