How much does sugar affect you?

Post Reply New Topic

Too much water can kill you. Everything needs to be taken in moderation. Not enough sugar is harmful to you in some way too. I get really tired and dizzy if I don't have enough.

Hypoglycaemic - lots of sugar and chocolate for me, pleeaase
otherwise I can't concentrate and my stress-level rises .

Exactly the same here. Not enough sugar => weakness, dizziness, rapid faint pulse and dyspraxia-like symptoms.

Too little makes me lethargic, too much hyperactive. I have no problems with being hyperactive.

Me neither. I swear I concentrate better if I am mildly or moderately hyperactive.

And does anyone else get dyspraxialike symptoms if they don't eat regularly? If I get a low blood sugar slump, I can actually start walking awkwardly, more falling than walking...

yeah, stumble and start trembling.

Not at all. I've gone without sugar for months (as in, a ketogenic diet) to manage my epilepsy and never noticed any reduction in any other symptoms.

I guess I'm not sensitive to gluten either.
