I notice when I blood glucose levels are high, I usually crave food -- and often carbohydrates! I'm curious...what foods do you crave, if any, when your blood glucose is high? How do you resist the urge to satisfy these cravings? Is there an explanation for these cravings?

I wonder if it has to do with the presence of ketones or not. When I am ketonic, my body is in flush mode. I crave water, need to pee, and sometimes vomit up whatever is still in my stomach. Maybe the turning point between the body thinking it needs more glucose and ridding itself of additional glucose is all about ketones.

I'm sure someone here in our community would know the answer to this...
Thanks so much for sharing this explanation!
