I noticed I simply cannot eat cereal anymore due to the reactive hypoglycemia it causes. Googled around today and found out that what it was, which had me confused because the stuff has sugar in it so you'd think it'd be a no-brainer, right?

So it looks like I got to get more fruit in my diet and eat small meals throughout the day.

Anything that works well for you?

    peanut butter; the natural kind whose oil separates if you let it sit too long without stirring it. (if you're not sure, read the ingredients on the label and if it has sugar or palm oil stay away. also stay away if it's low/no fat)

    eat it as you're eating the cereal; or anything else with a lot of carbohydrates; and it'll dampen its effect.

    i've been doing it so long that i now i sometimes just eat the peanut butter alone since it fills me up very quickly when i'm too lazy to make anything and it always tastes good.

    caution: it has a lot of calories so i max out at 2 tablespoons.
