Well, when I tested mine, the "hypoglycemic" wasn't low blood sugar at all,
which was a shock! Blood sugar issues was my primary reason for doing
this, and it's worked like a charm. I don't watch my carbs particularly,
and usually have white rice with my meals most of the time (my
cuisine is primarily Asian). In Asia they do eat a LOT of what is
supposedly a bad carb, white rice, but they have very low levels
of both obesity and diabetes.
I do donate blood and watch out for how many iron-rich foods though.
Blood ferritin levels are one of the things that can mess up your
sugar handling, and my ferritin levels were rather high. They have come
down, and so has my blood glucose.

i am not diabetic but i deal with low sugar and shakes and cold sweats. i have always assumed i was hypoglycemic. whether you are either one, you want to watch your carbs. you don't want to eat too many carbs but you can't cut them out either. i try to read all i can about the good carbs and bad carbs. as long as i eat good food, i haven't had any probs with the fasting.
