[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2248805, member: 85785"] Hi, I've tried to introduce certain favourite foods to see how I do with them from time to time. Certain things that someone with other than RH could tolerate as a treat of some such. I've changed a lot of things since diagnosis, to see if would help with control. Some things have, mostly not! You think to yourself, go on have a extra piece of dark chocolate, have a roastie, some gravy and so on. Just a waste of time! Because of the way RH happens, once triggered and the overshoot occurs the hypo is inevitable. The only thing that will help you is a drug such as a Gliptin. Which increases the initial insulin response, the trigger is still going to happen but not as bad as without the drug. My reasoning on it all and after going through all the experiment and recording of how my body reacts to certain foods, many months of trial and error, readings, recording, tracking my blood glucose levels and seeing what happens. I came up with the conclusion that if I wanted to avoid the rollercoaster ride of the yo yo effect of continuous hypers and hypos, then I would have to ignore a lot of my doctors dietary advice and go Keto for as long as possible. I can't put myself through all that again, no thanks! I'd rather do without those foods, indeed, I am quite happy, not having to eat them, as my health is the most important thing for me. As always, we are all different, and what works for me, might not for you. Best wishes [/QUOTE]
