Hypoglycemia and Depression

I am analyzing the relationship of hypoglycemia and depression. When you eat wrong a persons' body's sugar levels are out of balance; considering all foods break down to glucose. Our bodies are ran from the break down of sugars. If we are having a problem in a certain area of our mental or physical health. We must first observe our food intake. A great example is when we are physically ill and have to be hospitalized. When we are admitted, the first thing the doctors do is put an I.V. drip to balance our system.

Similarly, stress causes the squeezing of the adrenal cortex. Which causes the sugar levels to drop; thus, the thinking slowly changes and acts as a mirror image to our physical and mental well being. When the thinking changes, the receptiveness changes. Hence, the learning changes. Wheat the person used to interpret ideas and though in a healthy way. All of the sudden their body is out of whack and the problems arise.

When referring to depression we must understand if it is the hypoglycemia that stresses the person or the poor eating habits that causes the changes in glucose. Scientists try to complicate therapy. If we simply educate a person about this physical change resulting from poor eating habits one doesn't need extensive useless therapy. Simply put: Change the persons eating habits and the thinking will return to think rationally and clean and their is no need for a therapist. It is similar to gestational diabetes. A woman will only have to monitor her glucose levels during the pregnancy. As soon as the fetus is born. The woman has no longer a diabetes problem. However, during the pregnancy, the woman has to monitor the glucose levels with a diabetic monitoring device every three hours to make sure she has healthy glucose levels.
When dealing with depression, we must first get the consent of a physician and we should monitor the glucose levels and once they are in balance and continued to stay in balance. The depression will naturally dissipate.

As Dr. Christine Northrup, M.D."Unfortunately high glycemic foods are the"comfort" foods most people crave, including macaroni, white bread, cookies, cakes, and bagels. Eating to many high glycemic foods on a daily basis results in glycemic stress/ inflammation of the blood vessel's because of the free- radical damage that ensues when blood sugar is too high. Over time, the blood vessel lining thickens, making it more and more difficult for the insulin to get out and into the cells. ... Insulin resistance actually begins in the blood vessals of the skeletal muscles, The place where blood vassals are designed to burned lost efficiency. This process - which beging in childhood - sets the stage for hardening of the arteries and also full - blown insulin resistance. ... Over time as blood sugars continue to be to high, the insulin receptors on the cells actually loose their ability to respond to high blood sugar.Three wrong types of dietary fats also change the insulin receptors on the cell itself, thus contributing to the problem. Micro nutrient deficiencies such as too little chromium also contribute to the problem. Over time, the pancreas simply looses its ability to produce insulin and the cells loose their sensitivity to it! Type II diabetes. But their is more. It has recently been discovered that fat cells them selves produce inflammatory chemicals, which is another reason why obesity is a risk factor for cancer. Body fat is loaded with insulin receptors. The fatter you get the more insulin it takes to get blood sugar into your cells. And because insulin is a storage hormone, the higher its levels the harder it is to release fat as its fuel. Insulin actually locks fat in place!"

It is because of the "bad" fat we often associate all fats to be bad. Hence, some schools in America are actually teaching that Avocados are "bad" fat. One would think that all normal intelligent humans based ion reality/planet freakin Earth would realized Avocados have fatty Omega threes!

I am going to try to monitor the fuel intake - as if I have gestational diabetes. Although I will not use the device diabetics use to prick their finger. I am over time as a life time goal am going to monitor the resulting energy levels or lack there of...

I will over time post the recipes and diet changes for all to see. However, every ones methods and body types are different. What will work for me might not necessarily work for you! However, the point here is to use the example.

We all must follow different paths to the lost city of the golden diet. As explorers we will all explore this journey of life differently as we travel down it icy, cold, rough waters! We all have to raft through the obstacles until we find the right equipment to properly navigate the vessel! Finding the right diet for your body type is a life time goal! However, eating healthy with a partner or as a family can be fun and enjoyable. I will keep you informed as I progress!
