I know we have discussed this before , but here lately once again , I find myself collapsing after eating anything with refined flour . Last nght for instance , I had one small piece of pizza . I normally do not eat it , but knew I needed to eat something .. and WHAM ... I went down harder than I ever had .. I could not keep my eyes open for nothing .. I had to go lay down .. and fell asleep .. when I woke .. I was still so groggy that I just gave in and went to bed .. Could this be an alergy to the flour or the sugar in the bread dough... This time was bad ..really bad ... Any ideas ? Tink

Could be reactive hypoglycemia. Your body giving off too much insulin in response to the carbs from the white flour (aka sugar). Do you have a glucometer? You should probably get one, Nat. Then you'd know if it is a blood sugar issue or not. When you feel funky, test. That's what I do. I do not test if I feel fine because there is nothing of interest to see. Good luck, hon. I know you have enough on your plate these days without worrying about this. Take care, Kathy
