    @NicholasDynesGracey Wow, you sound like you have a really technical knowledge of this subject, what is your field of expertize? As for fuel, while doing a Ketogenic diet, if I eat too many carbs in a meal I can definitely feel my energy go down, I assume that ketosis is being significantly weakened (same thing happens to a lesser extent with too much protein). I can feel my energy also go way down when My blood sugar gets into the low 70′s or less.

    @tickyul Yes, youp, yodown. Feeling good may well be a way of gauging optimal neurological fuel levels. Intermittent ‘low insulin eating’ should improve upon low carb eating because some protein amino acid fuels stimulate insulin apparently leading to yodown & ‘protective diabetes’. Blood fuels also include fructose, lactic acid, ketones & triglycerides. Lactic acid conditioning training appears most beneficial: watch?v=kGrdsedQB9o

    @NicholasDynesGracey Wow, that is pretty interesting. Probably has to be a pretty miserable yo-yo cycle. If I eat too many carbs, I see prediabetic levels. I eat very low carbs now and feel very good.

    @tickyul Apparently blood glucose concentration rises, especially from increased gluconeogenesis in combination with GLUT4 glucose / insulin resistance, to help protect nerve tissue from blood fuel shortages. That protective adaption is often called diabetes and ‘Diabetics’ are often treated with glucose fuel lowering drugs instead of improved … hydration to prevent dehydration & nutrition to prevent neurological fuel shortage.

    @NicholasDynesGracey Just trying to clarify your point. Are you trying to suggest that high blood sugar is a good condition for a diabetic to have?

    anyone who wants to know more about Hypoglycemia may also find the book “Hypoglycemia for Dummies” useful. it explains how to prevent low blood sugar episodes, fight depression and stay motivated, make it through the work day, help hypoglycemic infants and children etc

    “… AnyOne whose body is fuelled by glucose can faint from HYPOglycemia [too little glucose or 'fuel anemia'] … supposedly diabetes is a disease of HYPERglycemia [allegedly too much glucose] OR is HYPERglycemia really the ‘cure’ from the HYPOglycemia that is the Diabetic’s real dis-ease ? …”

    I’ve never heard of hypoglycemia being described in terms of these kinds of stages before. It’s somewhat misguiding. Blood sugar should be considered more as a wide spectrum. Many of these symptoms of low blood sugar that are mentioned in this video can actually occur within minutes by exercise, consumption of refined sugar/carbohydrates or by stress.

    Why weren’t hypoglycemic drop attacks and loss of consciousness included ON the list?

    Glycemic Index is based on faulty science. The basic chemistry they used in determining GI is not correct. Please see-
    GLYCEMIC INDEX- why it does not worK ?

    Just copy and paste into SEARCH box.

    Glycemic Load is based on DIRECT measurement of the glycemic response to a known weight of test food. No calculation or estimation of GI from apparent weight of contained CARBOHYDRATE is needed. Although the GI Researchers can’t or don’t want to understand this, it is a fact
