Thank you Bear, that actually makes sense to me because I do have
hypoglycemia. So, if coffee tends to stimulate production of glucogen, what
it's doing to me is peaking my blood sugar which then triggers a plummet
since I did not know that it caused this problem and balance it with a
protien. Due to the tendency of it to make me ill, I doubt I will try
coffee again, but at least I now know the reasons for my problems.
