		<description>Hi Josie,

So i'm a newcommer to this group and have been reading older
postings, and fell upon yours.

Diabetes.... Fun, fun, fun... I'm a type 1 diabetic and have been
for the last 15 years. Diagnosed at only 11 years old, i had no idea
what i was in for. When I was in my teens, i had 10 good years of
rebellion... eating very badly. As they say &#34; i had my cake and
ate it too&#34; After almost dying at twenty from hyperglycemia, i had
to refine my ways. After having been in a high blood sugar comfort
zone, i found it very difficult to suddenly get my sugars into the
desired zone, just as you did. Like anything concerning diabetes,
you have to take it slow... Slowly try to cut down high glycemic
foods, and definately those pops! I rememer thinking, while
&lt;!--more--&gt;
refining my ways, that i fel like i was in a constant hangover
state. In fact i've never felt as bad when i had an alcohool
hangover. That's when i realized that i had to come back down slowly
as to not put my body (and especially mind) into shock.

So, all to say... you know where you're going wrong, as did I. You
just have to give yourself the chance to slowly come back down from
the hyperglycemic hangover. As daunting as that may sound, just put
your mind to it... you can do it!

		<description>I'm not an expert on any of this, but... anytime your
blood sugar lowers, even if it's lower from a high,
you can have low blood sugar symptoms (dizzy, shaky,
etc) until your body adjusts. Say your blood sugar
has been running around 200 and your body has adjusted
to that and you do something to drop it so it's
running around 160, you will feel the difference as
&#34;low blood sugar.&#34; I have found there are some things
to lessen this effect. 1) throw away whatever you're
doing and eat something sweet--not what I recommend.
2) eat flax--take a flax oil capsule, grind some flax
seeds and sprinkle them on whatever you're eating, I
just throw a couple of teaspoons in some water and
drink it down. My doc recommended that I be taking at
least 1/4 cup (work up to it, folks) a day of ground
&lt;!--more--&gt;
flax. 3) mix up a drink from a mix call emergen-c
and drink. This is full of good vitamins and minerals
and helps me instantly get rid of that shaky, dizzy
feeling. Works for me sometimes in seconds. 4) find
an essential oil that helps you get grounded. I
recommend sniffing dill because it's a pancreas
supporter and a sugar stabilizer. You only have to
waive it under the nose. Sometimes lime will do it
for me, other times peppermint, just depends upon the
day. (Not to advertise, but I do have dill on sale
10% off through May 2 on my site www.TracesEtc.com--I
only mention it because I'm telling you about the
dill).

I am not familiar with the diet you're using. I
highly recommend The Liver Cleanse Diet, as it is very
sensible and will improve health, whereas many diets
destroy health while mascquerading as something good
for you.

Finally, if you're pre-diabetic, you may want to
simply do a parasite cleanse, this will often stop the
progress of the diabetes, and if it doesn't, it only
helps your overall health anyway.</description>
