[QUOTE="kokhongw, post: 1565391, member: 277199"] Actually we don't need medication to get hypo...a high carb meal could well do the job... Here I had 3 chinese turnip/bamboo shoots dumplings around 11am. The dumpling skins were made with glutinous rice flour. [ATTACH=full]23909[/ATTACH] So 2hr plus post meal glucose shoots to > 9mmols.(165 mg/dl) And 4 hours post meal glucose drops to 3 mmol (54mg/dl) . I felt a sudden spinning sensation and dizziness followed by the shakes/cold sweat shortly. This is a typical reactive hypo condition, often experienced by 1) those who are prediabetic 2) recovering T2D...because we have become more insulin sensitive, but still have high post meal insulin responses. Instead of correcting with glucose tabs/fast carb...I had a cup of bulletproof coffee and some cashew nuts so that I will not over correct...The coconut oil provides the ketones to calm the brain while waiting for the liver to pump out some glucose into the system.
