Yeah ... its very interesting. I finally found that out in a pharmacology book. I studied science and knew all about "gluconeogenesis" ... sugar made in the liver to provide a steady stream of glucose/sugar to the brain. I work in a hospital so I use to have the nurse check my blood sugar ... whenever I had a craving=low blood sugar. I actually would awake from ambien induced sleep every morning around 4 due to low blood sugar.
I guess the key is to feed yourself pure sugar .... like soda or orange juice. I think what got me fat was eating food high in carbs and *fat*. I was eatting hostess pies and donuts which are excellent to raise the sugar, but the fat just clogges your arteries and put on the pounds.
Thanks for your input
