[QUOTE="kokhongw, post: 1827797, member: 277199"] Actually I would suggest taking some virgin coconut oil...before you sleep... Some may consider this as mambo jumbo...But the rationale is simply this... Yes you may be dropping too low around 3-4 am and the brain screams for actions to pump up the glucose...but essentially it is because it doesn't have adequate fuel, either ketones or glucose. Have you checked your ketones levels when you wake? VCO are slow release and stays much longer in the system then MCT. So a couple of spoonfuls may be enough to keep the brain happy... I do experience waking with pounding heart after carb heavy dinner... [/QUOTE]
