Lamont, have been thinking of you, hoping you are well! How are you on your journey? I hope you see the post I made below in this thread today, as perhaps you might find it interesting. All best, Katherine

Hello, I have posted several times to this thread and others on this forum as for about 10 years I suffered from "reactive hypoglycemia." I am writing this update to share what has helped go from living in the torturous food desert of extreme reactive hypoglycemia (RH) to being able to eat...

Hello! I don’t have symptoms all day. I keep it under strict control by eating protein with a tiny bit of whole grain carbs without an natural sugars (meaning I check the label and it must say 0 next to sugar in the nutritional graph) at least every four hours. If I eat something very heavy, I...

Thank you for your post, research and initiative concerning your health. It’s the first time I have heard or read someone who has the same condition as I do. When my blood sugar is at 91, I’m usually already trembling inside, my coordination a mess, my brain fogged and my body in emergency...

Lamont, I have read many of your posts. You are a strong, resourceful, intelligent being. You got this. Sending you love.
