Diet can help fibromyalgia and hypoglycemia symptoms

It has been estimated by Dr. Paul St. Amand that 40% all people with fibromyalgia, also suffer from hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). What this means is that 4 in 10 fibromyalgia sufferers need a fibromyalgia and hypoglycemia diet - else many of their symptoms will flare-up. An improper diet will increase insulin levels, force blood sugar down, and bring out fibromyalgia symptoms that includes fatigue, irritability, headaches, depression, carb cravings, blurry vision, poor memory, and anxiety. At worst, there will also be hypoglycemic symptoms such as fainting or a rapid heartbeat. A proper fibromyalgia and hypoglycemia diet will keep insulin levels from rising and keep blood sugar from lowering.

This is really good to know!  thank you!

Hi Kristy,

This is awesome information, did you just find it by searching? I would like to find an eating plan/proper diet for this. I would love to not have to take the meds or at least find herbal/ remedies.

Hi to everyone, I found this information on www.ask.com, I just came across it.  Fibromyalgia Syndrome Chronic Fatigue Related Topics:  Fibromyalgia Diet related topics.  One day I just typed in for the heck of it "What is Fibromyalgia" and got a load of info.  Let me know if this helps.

You have no idea how I feel right now, I feel like God just send you to help me.  i had been so depressed, because HOW CAN I DO DIETS IF MY BLOOD SUGAR JUST GO DOWN SO EASY. I DIDN'T  HAVE THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THE VSG, AT LEAST IS WHAT I BELIVE THAT.  i'm afraid at this point to do exercises because just with the daily rutine is hard to keep it up.  I eat carb, is the only way I feel better.  I will check more info form ask.com  I really need to lose 27 pounds, and I feel so helpless.
 
thanksand
