Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Yes Sunny, I test positive for hypoglycemia and have to be very careful. I recently had a very scary episode of autonomic crisis brought on by hypoglycemia. Kristie Message: 5 Date: Sun, 1 Aug 2004 12:46:16 -0400 From: z39z@... Subject: Re: aspertame - aspertame, con't Yes, thanks for the article on aspertame. Another consideration about it getting hot - do we know how hot the pop got in trucks and storage? We used to keep our diet pop in the garage, even in the summer. Then we started storing it all in the house. Now we drink plain old Club Soda. After a period of adjustment, we find we like it better than diet pop. One more thought about all diet foods and sugarless gum as well. It is claimed that the artificial sweeterners by themselves can stimulate the pancreas to release insulin. Too much insulin can cause the blood sugar to go down too far, resulting in fatigue. Since fatigue is such a huge problem for me, I try to watch all possible sources, and just have cut out all sources of artificial sweeteners that I can. I also trying to keep my carb consumption low, restricting myself to the healthy fruits and veggies as much as I can. I have posted before that I think I feel better on a higher protein, lower carb diet.. Still, I can't be sure, because sometimes I still get those awful and sudden bouts of fatigue without any other explanation other than mito. Has anyone else tested positve for hypoglycemia? Even though I don't post too much, I come daily to read, and appreciate all who share their experience and knowledge. It has been a huge help. I am not sure about Pittsburg yet, but am hoping I can make it, and look forward to meeting you. Thank You Sunny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
