I was wondering if anyone has a child with hypoglycemia? I have it pretty severely and so does my 9 yr old son. He can be very irritable and depressed. I see most of his behavior issues as symptoms as they generally clear up after he eats. I have trouble finding support from relatives. It's hard to make someone understand what a serious problem this can be when they haven't experienced the symptoms of hypoglycemia.
Has anyone done a low-carb diet with a child? What were your experiences. He is terrible when he comes home from school and I know it's mostly from the sugar-laden school lunches and lack of snack. I have trouble finding the time to make his lunch in the morning and i'm not sure what would be a good snack that can be stored in the nurses office that doesn't require refrigeration.
I want to thank everyone for their experiences on this forum, especially stan. You have helped me to make positive changes toward healing my body.
