The saying goes on that ‘You are what you eat!’ Have you ever asked yourself how foods affect your brain? Previous explanations in this regards proves true. It is another issue that we don’t take them seriously. As a key player brain is most important organ of our body which controls it by helping us determine our actions, thoughts and feelings. Imagine the worsening impact we would have if our brains are not nourished. The focus of this week’s article digresses slightly from brain functioning to nutrition. We will discuss nutrition which is crucial in our body functioning and maintenance of healthy blood sugar levels.

Good number of masses observes that blood sugar is linked with the diabetics so others should not worry about it. But when you manage the ADD/ADHD symptoms, you should think otherwise. The reality is entirely different and makes all of us accountable for a thinking level. The symptoms of blood sugar can have irrefutable effect on a person’s general health and well being. Carelessness force you lead secluded life as its effects on health is worse. We must think over this and spend enough time to find best solutions for overcoming this problem. But before we discuss its specifications, let’s have a look on the blood sugar level concept.

Understanding the basic concept of blood sugar levels remains incomplete without having a detailed knowledge of the powerhouse of our body named glucose which is the main source of energy for us. Glucose flows in the blood streams of our body in its normal course at 90 milligrams per 100 milliliters. But whenever we take some sort of meal its level starts showing a remarkable rise. The forthcoming articles in coming weeks will be exclusively focusing on those complications, rises and the treatment of ADD/ADHD in such circumstances.

Blood sugar levels that are significantly above or below normal levels can lead to all kinds of serious medical problems; Symptoms related to both extremes include the following.

Low Blood Sugar (Hypoglycemia): Your body deteriorates in various ways in low blood sugar. This symptom indicates that body is not charged and lacks energy. Once this phenomenon occurs your brain gets affected at the first juncture. Lack of energy enforces it not to perform any determinative work. Dependent parts of your body start showing pessimistic effect. This leads your brain to cease working. It becomes unable to detect non-critical functions of your body when symptoms of low blood sugar are vibrant. You feel ‘fuzziness.’ While reaching at this position your brain can’t even perform regular assignments. You fail to perform your usual duties and mental task. Other complications of low blood sugar are shakiness, anxiety and tremors. Low blood sugar damages your emotional health and you feel irritability, negativity, moodiness and depression. When it reaches to extreme low, you suffer from stupor, seizures and comas. Looking this entire issue in ADD/ADHD perspective raises many pertinent questions. You feel lack of focus; general irritability and at times hypoglycemia overpower you. Forthcoming articles would elaborately discuss this issue.

It causes critical illnesses like blurred vision, uncontrolled weight loss and recurrent infections. Stupors and comas are its extremely critical effects if there is uncontrolled rise in blood sugar levels

It should be very clear from the above that wild fluctuations in blood sugar levels could have some very nasty consequences and that blood sugar level management should be one of the top priorities for anyone interested in maintaining good general health. This is especially true in the case of those having to deal with the symptoms of ADD/ADHD as research is constantly pointing to the role of extreme fluctuations in blood sugar levels in creating symptoms like lethargy, indifference, irritant and wild mood swings. This issue is so vitally important that I will spend the next few weeks probing some of the wide ranging implications of blood sugar swings and the way in such swings can, for the most part, be prevented.
