hi ya's, hopefully this is an ok place to put this..
Just wondering if anyone knows what the opposite of diabeties is?.. about 2 months ago i had a glocose intolerance test as well as a lactose intolernce test.. the doctor then said i didnt have diabeties i had the opposite of diabeties - he didnt call it anything but that, he said that after drinking the stuff that ya have ta drink for the test, my body wasnt absorbing sugar or lactose, and to avoid both of those things.. i would have thought if i wasnt absorbing it that i should start really eating junk food, with lots of sugar! i have been waiting for an appoointment with a dietition but they must b really busy as i havent had it yet.. just trying to find sum more info on it.. so does anyone know if theres a name other than "the opposite of diabeties", i also have crohns disease.. he said its a common "side effect" of that..
its called hypoglycemia (sp?) i may have it as well due to thyroid problems and im only 17, there still running tests for me though >_< its sucha pain lol
Diet is pretty important.
I was diagnosed with Hypoglycemia when I was 15 and the doctor basically didn't explain it very well to my mother.
I suffered by not eating correctly for yrs! Up until about two yrs ago as a matter of fact. I will be 39 in a month.
I now avoid all junk food, sweets and caffeine.
I drink alcohol in moderation and I check my blood sugar levels.
If I eat bad things I fall asleep, have terrible personality changes and gain weight around the middle.
I eat a balanced diet of protein, healthy carbs etc...
Sugar free candy.
I feel 100% better.
I been able to keep my weight around 125.
I also have low thyroid, blood pressure and cholesterol issues.
However, since following a better diet things are a lot better.
There are a lot of good books regarding diet out there.
Hi ya's, ive been looking up info, and i think perhaps the reason i dont seem to loose weight is b'cos ive been concentraing on reducing the amount of fat wen i should b perhaps reducing the amount of sugar sooooo i found a site that tells u how much sugar fat etc is in particular food and one of the things i looked up was grapes, and well they seem to have a lot of sugar.. is the sugar in fruit differnt from the sugar in sweets? or is fruit a no go if im cutting out sugar?
What are the good diet books that you have found for hypoglycemia? I think I might have it and it is causing me to have non epileptic seizures. How were you diagnosed?
Linear Mode
