O/T - Specific Carbohydrate Diet & Hypoglycemia??

[Guest guest]

I've read how the SCD has worked for some. I would like to try it

(to fix gut issues including candida) but am concerned about the

fruit and honey and blood sugar effects. I'm not sure if I have

hypoglycemia or not but do know that something is not right with my

blood sugar. Eating processed carbs makes me feel like I am having a

milder blood sugar reaction than sugar (which i no longer eat). I've

had regular fasting blood sugar tests and test fine.

Can the yeast make me have blood sugar reactions? I was wonering if

SCD cleared up or put yeast under control if that would make the

fruit & honey ok for me.

Also, the SCD sounds too good to be true b/c of the fruit & honey.

But I can't go on any longer on just meat & vegetables. I've been

doing this for a few years & go through cheating periods (like right

now) and figure SCD would just be better (more well rounded) then

going from one extreme to the other.

I know not to go overboard on the fruit & honey. But am still

concerned as I become addicted (to put it mildly) to sugar & put on

weight quickly (which i can't afford to do).

My hair test is all low suggesting that I am malnourished (but

overweight) and really feel nutrients are a big issue for me.

Can anyone give me any guidance on how yeast affects blood sugar and

also if SCD (w/fruit & honey) would effect blood sugar?
