Whenever I have too much sugar (such as in hot chocolate or a cinnamon bun) I feel really sick. If I don't eat for a few hours I have really bad headaches....could this be related to my blood sugar at all? Should I be concerned?

Yes it definitely is. I can completely relate to you.

When you eat sporadically (not at set times, and different amounts), then you can feel sick. You should try and map out your day so that you have 4-5 smaller meals instead of 3 large meals. The in-betweens can be something like a piece of fruit and some nuts/an egg. You never want to wait until you're hungry to eat.

You want to avoid sugar and processed foods. In some (controversial) studies, sugar has been proven to be more dangerous than smoking. It weakens the immune system and leaves you susceptible to getting sick. That's why parents tell their kids not to eat too much candy. It is toxic to the brain and I just read today that sugar can affect memory loss. I know sugar isn't good for me, and it isn't good for lots of people, and is a main reason why people are overweight (fat doesn't make you fat).

I remember I ate lots of cookies one time and felt sooo sick it was unbelievable... and I follow an otherwise healthy diet. You want to make sure you're eating lots of veggies, and including whole food animal products in your diet (not processed), like eggs and meat. Milk contains sugar too, so if you want to avoid sugar you want to avoid milk products; lactose=sugar.

I know for sure when I had the same problem it was my blood sugar. Deal with this without medical supervision, as doctors will just either tell you you're fine and you won't get to the root of it, or they'll say you're diabetic or hyper/hypo-glycemic.

Improving your diet as well as exercise (I can't stress that enough) can help any and all health problems (incl. obesity, over-eating, acne, etc.). Keep up with water too. When your body feels sick you want to drink lots of water so that you can flush out all the bad stuff.

Hey yeah this could be a sign of several things. Go to your regular Doctor and let them do some blood work on you and that will tell you alot. ALso you can go buy a very inexpensive Glucose monitor around $20 and then you can check on it yourself for a few days before you go to the doctor. It would be best to monitor in when you first get up and after and before meals for a while to see what is happening with you. ALso kinda keep a diary of your diet and that would help the doctor. I know cause I work for a Doctor as a nurse

High blood levels of glucose can cause several problems, including frequent urination, excessive thirst, hunger, fatigue, weight loss, and blurry vision. However, because type 2 diabetes develops slowly, some people with high blood sugar experience no symptoms at all. How to treat diabetes naturally https://tr.im/Zwl1J

Symptoms of type 1 diabetes:

Increased thirst
Increased urination
Weight loss in spite of increased appetite
Fatigue
Nausea
Vomiting

Patients with type 1 diabetes usually develop symptoms over a short period of time, and the condition is often diagnosed in an emergency setting.

Symptoms of type 2 diabetes:

Increased thirst
Increased urination
Increased appetite
Fatigue
Blurred vision
Slow-healing infections
Impotence in men



If you think you have diabetes i think you should have a checkup and speak with your doctor just in case.

I would go to a Doctor and have your blood sugar monitored. This could be the beginning of Diabetes, or it could be an imbalance of diet.

There is no one single Paleo Diet, as our ancestors from all over the world ate dramatically different diets depending on the climate where they lived, their landscape, accessibility to water bodies, and the latitude that they lived. This is a detailed meal plan for the paleo diet https://tr.im/woCLK

In some cases, a Paleo Diet may be 90% plant foods and 10% animal foods, and in other cases, a Paleo Diet may be 90% animal foods and 10% plant foods.

For example, our ancestors that lived near the equator had year long access to more plant materials such as root vegetables and various fruits, veggies, and nuts.

On the other hand, our ancestors that lived at higher latitudes further away from the equator only had access to fruits and vegetables seasonally at one specific time period per year, and had larger periods of the year where they ate a higher % of meats, organ meats, fish, and other animal-based foods, or fermented foods that could be stored for winter.

The best thing if you have health concerns is talk it over with your family physician. Usually the doctor orders some test to check if you have Diabetes Mellitus like OGTT ( Oral glucose tolerance test), HgbA1c (Glycosylated Hgb). then you and your doctor will know if you have diabetes
