blood sugar?

i’ve noticed for a long time that when i go for longer runs and tempos, or in this case, field hockey pre-season for a couple hours at a time, i start to go deaf. A diabetic friend said that this happens to her when her blood sugar is low, but it doesn’t always go away after I eat soemthing. It’s more intense if I excercise without having eaten enough- but it never happens any other time. anyone know anything about this?

K,
Do are you on any antidepressants? Some s/e’s people experience is deafness but mostly experience ringing of the ears (tinitus).

classic case of vegetarians.

WOW clemson,
I never heard of that of Veg ppl., is this common among most vegetarians?

are you sure it’s a vegetarian thing as opposed to a basic lack of fuel? I never had a full-blown eating disorder diagnosed, but I definitely used to experience this a lot when I was going through a dangerous restricted eating phase. I definitely eat when i’m hungry now (yes vegetarian, but including fish!), but sometimes its still not very much. should i take the deafness as a signal to eat sugar?

Go see a doctor…its best to play it safe.

I agree with TL, go see your Dr. he/she will get some blood work done and see how your blood glucose levels are during a fasting state to better get an idea of how you’re doing.
Also, I wouln’t say eat more sugar, but just eat, eventually it’ll get brokendown to glucose (blood sugar) and then glycogen.

I still feel that combinations of grains like rice and beans should be avoided. Sure they may pack junk in the trunk for J-lo’s ass, but that GL of CHO is too high. Look at Buddha’s belly…I an not saying Jesus is right because he had Fish…but give me a break, he had a hell of a six pack from just walking around…no joke.

That’s a NICE avatar Clemson! :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: Too bad she doesn’t look like that anymore

Even after being at Atlas for three hours getting wasted…no fat girls.
