[QUOTE="mariavontrapp, post: 927299, member: 188149"] Hi grace I had this problem for many years before becoming diabetic. I believe it was reactive hypoglycemia. When you eat something with a higher glycaemic index like toast and jam it causes a big rise in blood sugar followed by a slump which for me was usually at 11am or 2 hours after going to bed. Although you are not diabetic I would recommend you find out about the glycaemic index/load of foods and about reactive hypoglycemia. I wish I had known about this years ago. Try to have a cooked savoury breakfast or slow burning cereal such as porridge. Jam and toast is no good for you. [/QUOTE]
