| Hypoglycemia For Dummies 2nd Edition
If you pick up this book, chances are you’ve been suffering from
the blues for a long time: the low blood sugar blues, that is. If
you’re hypoglycemic, you know that you don’t have to go to an
amusement park to experience the roller coaster effect; your blood
sugar does it for you automatically, thank you very much. In addition,
you may often get the jitters (especially after a stretch of time
without food), and become nervous, edgy, and irritable. You’re
chronically tired, and you wake up in the morning not feeling the
least bit rested. Or maybe you have other complaints, such as
depression, that just don’t respond to medical treatments — or
any other remedies.
Since the first edition of Hypoglycemia For Dummies came out in
2002, many more studies have been published on how foods affect
your health. Although the basic hypoglycemia diet remains the
same, we know much more than we did about the effect of different
fats on the body. At the same time, more light has been cast on the
dangers of artificial sweeteners and monosodium glutamate (MSG).
