Common Questions and Answers about Hypoglycemia diet suggestions
hypoglycemia
Went for a normal physical with fasting labs. I got a call from my doctor two days later and my glucose was 56. They were concerned about me being possibly hypoglycemic. Been checking it on and off and reading a lot on the subject but no definite answer as to what I need to be watching for in the future. It ranges from being in the 60s to 120s. The highest I've ever saw it go is 122 but that was two hours after eating.
Eat a high protein diet to help my hypoglycemia but my hypoglycemia is getting unbarable even when I eat the right things and several small meals a day.
I know my lack of thyroid function is causing these blood sugar spikes.
Clean up your diet. Get on the Phase I Diet by Doug Kaufman. Yeast thrive on carbos, and sugar. eliminate all sugars including fruits until this pest fungus is eliminated from your system. Veggies, salads meats ok, no sauce. Look for the diet on line. Kaufman is also on TV. "Know the cause." I hope this help!!
People who live with hypoglycemia often can control this problem by eating a carefully-chosen diet (do a Google search on Hypoglycemia to see suggestions). It is important to understand what is happening when you feel this way, for your reaction times when driving can be affected if glucose levels are too low, and so this can be a dangerous condition if it happens when you are behind the wheel of a car.
Everything that I eat gives me indigestion, and I'm hungry all the time and don't know what to buy because I've never been a good diet person besides Diet Coke and I gave that up. I've tried looking on YouTube for good meals to cook but with school and work I dont have much time for cooking gourmet. If anyone has any good ideas for fast "cheaper" meals I would greatly appreciate it!
Does any one have any suggestions for diet ideas to help with hyperactivity? Our son is 8 and he doesnt get candy or fizzy drinks etc.Any advice would be great!
I have been diagnosed with type II diabetes, and my physician at the time immediately put me on actoplusmet (no discussion of diet and excersise control first). I told him that I previously had gestational diabetes that once on diet alone caused my blood sugar levels to drop so low that the meter read in the 40's and sometimes just LOW. The nutritionsts then changed my diet so that it was double portion sizes and everything read perfectly.
At times back and neck problems may persist for years before they really start giving trouble. Chances of TMJ too should be looked into. Other causes are anemia, hypoglycemia or low sugar and some endocrine problems, such as an underactive thyroid (called hypothyroidism), overactive thyroid (called hyperthyroidism), adrenal insufficiency (called Addison's disease), and in some cases, diabetes, may lead to hypotension and hence lightheadedness and an off balance feeling.
I have a 8 year old boy with severe hypoglycemia. He is taking currently 100 mg proglycem twice a day capsule. He keeps his diet very well. But still has the terrible moodswings and his sugars are around 4 to 4.7 all day long. When he is sick then his sugars go high. he still has a lot of cramping and has problems in school staying awake and focused.
Does anyone have any idea what we can feed him to keep his energy up we are at a loss and the dietician does not have any other suggestions either.

Hi - I'm new here. I have pre-diabetes (about 2 years now) and have autoimmune degenerative neuropathy (CIDP for 26 years) unrelated to diabetes. I am not overweight, and am 32 years of age. My question is: does inflammation in the nervous system cause alterations in glucose metabolism? I'm currently having multiple daily bouts of hypoglycemia - my doctors can't/won't answer my question. I'm taking IVIG, Imuran and Ultram - no steroids or antidiabetics.
I would see your doctor about this very soon, as folks with hypoglycemia may develop diabetes later on. You may have pre-diabetes, and need to go on a diabetic diet. Meanwhile, make sure you have both protein and carbohydrates with all meals, and with all snacks, which you seem to be doing. You also might need to get a dietary consult and/or see an endocrinologist, for both are specially trained in working with people with blood sugar problems.
IF this IS hypoglycemia, you can do a lot to help yourself by making some changes in diet. Folks who live with hypoglycemia often avoid all forms of caffiene, which can speed up the body's functions and therefore increase the pancreas' dump of insulin. Also, many hypoglycemic people avoid all simple sugars and many find some relief in staying on a fairly low carb diet so as not to stimulate the over-active pancreas.
Recently I started passing out and my doctor ordered a 5 hour fasting. About hour 3 I crashed to a blood sugar level of about 37. I have met with a nutritionist and I am trying to adhere to this diet. However, it isn't making me feel any better. My head is very cloudy and I have difficulty concentrating. My head hurts constently and I can't sleep well at night. My eyes burn and sometimes I just feel like I am zoned out.
Last night I had to go to the er because my sugar dropped to 63 and they diagnosed it as hypoglycemia...
My symptoms are very similiar to low potassium, hypoglycemia, high blood pressure and anemia, but with the high iron, I don't think anemia is a possibility. Any suggestions on tests to get and could I have anemia or hypoglycemia with high iron? Thanks!
I was diagnosed with Hypoglycemia many years ago but never gave it much thought or consideration. When I felt sick or faintish after not eating for many hours I would just grab something quick and ignor the whole matter. I didn't think hypoglycemia was anything to worry about until lately. Over the last couple of months I've experiecened tingling and numbness in my hands, feet, lips and felt tingling sensations all over my body.
The medications we have tried are not helping her either. She has tried high sodium diet with lots of water as well as several medications. She has gotten to the point that she can't even go to school. She is on home bound where a teacher comes by twice a week to drop off and pick up school work.
It's so frustrating....more so because this is their Senior year and they shouldn't have to be worried about this when they have so much they should be doing.
Hello. I'm not a medical professional, just the parent of a kid with diabetes. As a fasting blood glucose result, 80 is on the low end of the ok range, but it is in the ok range.
If your daughter will develop diabetes, or just hypoglycemia, there is nothing known that you can do to prevent it. You can keep your family, daughter included, more healthy through exercise and a better diet with more fruits and grains, for example, but that won't stop hypoglycemia in your daughter.
