[fast5] Re: Health Related Question

As usual, Heather, Mary, and Ellen have said what I would say.
Everyone is different and I cannot say from afar just what causes a case of wooziness, and
it's not clear from your message how long your friend has been F5ing or whether she's
adjusted or going cold-turkey. This may be one of those individual quirks of adaptation
that passes without explanation, or it may be something that says F5 is not right for her.

It's not likely to be hypoglycemia since has occurred after eating, but the only way to know
for sure is to check a blood glucose level when the symptom is present.

I agree with the other possibilities that have been mentioned -- it could be that your
friend is not drinking as much during the day as she typically would on a conventional
eating schedule and was mildly dehydrated.

She may also be taking in less sodium/salt simply from eating less food or different food
and the dip has led to a little less blood pressure than her usual. The kidneys and blood
vessels should correct for this -- there's no need to deliberately take in more sodium. A
comparison of blood pressure measurements from when she's symptomatic to when she's
not would provide a clue.

Whatever the cause, she should change positions slowly/carefully as Mary said, and if the
symptom persists, back off of F5 and enlist the supervision of a physician if she wants to
proceed.
