Guest guest Posted January 26, 2002 Report Share Posted January 26, 2002 Evening Liz and Alobar, Still trying to figure out insulin and blood sugar..... >>Thus it is normal that your glucose levels go up toward morning, but ask your >doctor if the early mroning level is too high. Why is it that the docs seem so dead set on getting glucose readings after the typical 7 to 10 hours fast? Seems to me, something could be learned by readings taken 1 to 3 hours after a typical meal or even a large meal. My last blood analysis was done at 12:30 pm. I had to go by the lab for additional samples as I wanted more test than what was asked for by the doctors office. As I was concerned about what it would be after eating, I had 2 sausage patties about 9am. The reading was 90. One reading 5 hours after a meal was 83. I think I go around with a fasting level at times due to going too long without eating. The lowest reading I have checked was 81. Has anyone read much about the body triggering an insulin production to correct for a blood electrolyte imbalance? I read someplace this will happen. The writer was saying that the blood electrolytes are so important, the body will do anything it can to keep these in an operational range. Often I feel a bit weird like I might be a bit nauseated or low on glucose. I eat a few milligrams of sea salt and feel better within minutes, sometimes within seconds. I don't understand what is happening for sure. Even when I have some pressure in the eyes, the sea salt removes the pressure in a short time. I still think there is a lot we have not been told about salt, insulin, and glucose. Not a diabetic, ( I hope ) and trying hard to keep it that way.

I'm very interested in this because I have really low blood pressure and have sugar/glucose issues (Insulin resistance). Am working on getting my hands on some sea salt now. BTW, I remember hearing on another list of mine that the " treatment " for overeating sugar was salt, as well. This is really interesting!
