Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lamont D" data-source="post: 2047723" data-attributes="member: 85785">Your body will automatically produce insulin, to bring levels down, unless you have a condition that doesn't produce insulin, for instance, type 1 diabetes.If I took a glucose drink, which would enter my blood very quickly, I would go up to a double figure spike from a normal blood sugar level of between 4-6 mmols Then I would get an overshoot of insulin to drop my blood sugar levels and keep producing too much insulin and go hypo. That is RH!Not necessarily, not everyone is the same. I have 'Late' reactive hypoglycaemia, and I go hypo between three to four hours after depending on the amount of carbs I had ate!I don't think, that most hypoglycaemia patients can be the same due to the different hormonal response to food, there are those that will go hypo within an hour, and those at between two, three and four hours like me. It all depends on how your body copes with food and the hormonal response and it even differs, at different times, because of what you do or other factors.Best wishes</blockquote>
