@FlickFlaneuse @SamaHoole Agreed, I used to wake up starving and hangry. The first thing I "had" to do was drink tea with sugar and eat a bowl of muesli, with honey. 😬 Then I'd crash at 10 and be hangry all over again. The jitters were just awful.

@SamaHoole In point of fact, some people do wake up "shaking" with hypos and needing glucose. It's terrifying seeing it happen. And sugar addiction is very real.

Sugar addiction isn't real, apparently. Because nobody's cutting lines of caster sugar in a nightclub toilet. Nobody's stealing to fund a croissant habit. Nobody wakes up shaking if they don't have a Hobnob. So it must not be real. What is real: Dopamine release on consumption. Check. Tolerance build-up requiring more for the same effect. Check. Cravings during withdrawal. Check. Relapse triggered by stress or environmental cues. Check. Rationalisation and minimisation of consumption. Absolutely check. The pharmacology of sugar addiction maps onto classical addiction pathways with the kind of accuracy that should prompt a serious conversation. It hasn't prompted a serious conversation. It's prompted a third supermarket aisle of "reduced sugar" products containing maltodextrin, which has a higher glycaemic index than table sugar. Addiction isn't defined by the delivery mechanism. It's defined by the neurological response. The response is real. The industry prefers to argue about the mechanism.

Remarkable! Today we can reveal we made a 'world-first' discovery yesterday as we have found Puffins nesting in trees (they normally nest underground!) The blog has the full on this remarkable story: isleofmaynnr.wordpress.com

@Oh_Cee_Dee It was a shock 🤣 Nicely done on your 4.

@HardingJ66 Solid. Love a 3. Satisfying 4 today. Wordle 1,746 4/6 🟨⬛⬛⬛⬛ 🟩⬛🟩⬛⬛ 🟩⬛🟩⬛⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

@SamaHoole Sadly, this is my partner, he has fibromyalgia and refuses to give up the foods that are making him ill. I've gently explained on many occasions that a Keto diet will benefit, but, the sugar/carb addiction is real. He takes 3 meds daily and co-codamol when needed.

Patient goes to the doctor with chronic fatigue, joint pain, brain fog, digestive issues. Doctor refers to gastroenterologist. Gastroenterologist scopes, finds nothing structural, prescribes acid medication, refers back. Doctor refers to rheumatologist. Rheumatologist finds mild inflammation markers, suggests anti-inflammatories, refers to physiotherapy. Physiotherapist treats symptoms. Symptoms recur. Doctor prescribes antidepressants for the mood impact of chronic illness. Patient spends three years, eleven appointments, and four medications being treated for the effects of something no one identified as a cause. Patient removes seed oils, wheat, and sugar. Eats meat and eggs. Sleeps. Symptoms reduce by 80% in eight weeks. Patient returns to doctor. Doctor: "It's probably coincidence." It was not coincidence. The system is not designed to find dietary causes. It is designed to treat symptoms. The symptoms are real. The treatment is profitable. The cause is not on the referral pathway because the referral pathway was not built to look for it. This is not a conspiracy. It is a structure. Structures produce outcomes. This one is producing yours.

@LCHFDetective Glucky you!! Some of us have had a hell of a time, many of my friends are struggling way more than I am... I put my "half-decent" experience down to a LCHF diet and lifestyle... And a good GP who helped me get my HRT regime right.

I have never known what the big deal is. Sailed through it like it was nothing. I have friend who calls me Glucky. That's a cross between Good & Lucky.
