| | Reactive Hypoglycemia - from Dealing With Depression Naturally, by Syd Baumel |
 | | Hypoglycemia doctors (among whom are numbered most orthomolecular psychiatrists) use and interpret the OGTT much more flexibly. | | | In a study by psychologists Lori Taylor and S. Rachman, subjects with high His experienced up to five times the psychological symptomatology before, during, and after their nadir as subjects with low HIs. | | | Other research has supported some of the hypoglycemia doctors' liberal quirks of interpreting the OGTT. |

| | Suspected postprandial hypoglycemia is associated with beta-adrenergic hypersensitivity and emotional distress. | | | Suspected postprandial (after food) hypoglycemia is associated with beta-adrenergic (adrenaline) hypersensitivity (allergy) and emotional distress according to Berlin and others. | | | Substances in food such as tyramine, phenylalanine, phenolic flavonoids, alcohol, food additives (sodium nitrate, monosodium glutamate, aspartame) and caffeine can bring about blood vessel changes, leading to headaches. |

| | Although hypoglycemia does not readily spring to mind as an explanation for such behaviors, I believe they are caused by hypoglycemia far more frequently than is generally recognized. | | | In reading the old studies on hypoglycemia in the medical archives, I learned, among other things, that hypoglycemia worsens allergies, probably causes migraine headaches, and is often associated with rheumatoid arthritis. | | | Consider that hypoglycemia magnifies the immune response, so it often coexists with allergies (especially asthma) and rheumatoid arthritis. |
