Guest guest Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 I have found that sugar craving is intense on Armour or thyroid S .....I keep hoping that tomorrow I won't think about sugar. It really is different. Have liked sugar but never this much. Why does this happen? I see several posts stating the same thing. -- Too Much Sugar...What DO I DO? Over the last 2 days I went overboard on candy apples and chocolate and now I'm super tired and foggy brained really bad. What can I do???

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Sugar craving is pften from weak adrenals. When it happens you ned to resist of course, and eat protein and fats instead. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Not always. Usually it is from hypoglycemia which can be corrected by eating more protein and fats. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 -Are you on adrenal support? Adrenals regulate sugar and taking thyroid treatment can stress adrenal function. Just a thought. I also find if I take my minerals like chromium cravings are less..and treat candida...taking probiotics and antifungals really elminated the sugar cravings. Just more ideas... -- In NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS , " Klasi Lady " wrote: > > I have found that sugar craving is intense on Armour or thyroid S .....I > keep hoping that tomorrow I won't think about sugar.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 I am on Adrenal support...did that before adding in Armour. Tried T3 also. Felt good on it but things changed as time went by on that.....so I began adding in Armour. There is a huge difference in that sugar craving ... didn't have it on T3 but I began to have bowel problems. That stopped now the sugar craving. I will walk more as suggested and take chromium.....kinda forgot that. I take a multi mineral regularly. Thanks all, -- Re: Too Much Sugar...What DO I DO? -Are you on adrenal support?

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Any more suggesstions for hypoglycemia Val?? I borrowed a glucometer over the weekend - it explained why I have felt bad... My blood sugar drops to the 60s very easily. At this point it appears just to be hypolycemia - I haven't experienced any excessively high readings.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Yes eat often small meals and avoiud carbs as much as you can. High protein and high fat wil stick with you better. Raising cortils should also help this as well. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I'm two weeks into increasing my Armour from 2 grains to 2.5 grains - no problems. I have held my Isocort at 4-4-3-2 while doing so. I have prednisone tabs - you suggested going to 5mg am, 2.5mg at noon - when do you think I should try to switch over to the Prednisone from the Isocort? Hate to change to many things at once time...

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Using concentrated whey will also help incredibly with sugar cravings - it is only 90 calories and 23 grms of protein - keeps you Blood Sugar more level and stops the lows which just make you want even more sugar...especially helpful with diabetes...
