Message: <blockquote data-quote="Member496333" data-source="post: 2077947"><p>You seem to be using carbs as a means to balancing blood sugar? This shouldn’t be necessary. The liver is perfectly capable of manufacturing all the glucose that your body requires. Granted this process can malfunction, but to be honest ~3.5mmol/L is not abnormal in truly healthy people. If you have hypoglycaemic symptoms then you should seek medical advice, but the chances of you having a hypo in the absence of hypoglycaemics or exogenous insulin are very slim. If you get hungry then eat, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be carbohydrate. Unless you suspect something like reactive hypoglycaemia, there is no need to consider topping-up with exogenous glucose.</p></blockquote><p></p>
