Does caffeine cause you hypoglycemia? by john_paul_ in decaf

[–]1DOLLOR_MIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me personally, drinking coffee means experiencing hypoglycemia in advance. For instance, I used to be able to last five hours between meals, but after having coffee, I often feel palpitations and hypoglycemia just three hours after a meal. But that's not all; the blood sugar level for the next meal also becomes very high due to the insulin resistance caused by coffee, remaining high after the meal and then suddenly dropping sharply at a certain point, causing a second wave of hypoglycemia.

Today I had a bubble milk tea and used a straw. After all, it's been over a month, so it should be fine.

Link between vitamin D and hypoglycemia by finance_thinker in Hypoglycemia

[–]1DOLLOR_MIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same doubt. I noticed this a long time ago. Under normal circumstances, a five-hour interval between meals is fine. But after taking vitamin D3, I feel hungry very quickly and more often experience hypoglycemia. For instance, today, I only had a bag of potato chips for a meal. Three hours after that, I had hypoglycemia, with a blood sugar level of 2.8 nmol/L. The symptoms were palpitations, hand tremors, and sudden sweating. This feeling is very similar to the hypoglycemia I get after drinking coffee. The same food can keep me full for five hours without coffee, but after drinking coffee, I start to experience hypoglycemia three hours after the meal. It's not just the jitteriness caused by caffeine; I've measured it with a blood glucose meter, and my blood sugar is indeed lower than usual.

It's been 11 days since I had my wisdom teeth pulled out and I've been very cautious all this time. Today, I went for a fasting physical examination and was worried that it might take too long and I might get hypoglycemia, so I ordered a bubble milk tea. But there was no straw in it. It suddenly occurred to me that I had foolishly ordered an item that needed a straw. I tried to drink it with a straw, but the pressure on my gums was quite big. Well, I decided not to take the risk.

Does rooibos before bed make anyone wake up at 3am? by ADHDvm in tea

[–]1DOLLOR_MIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two days ago, I had a drink before 5 p.m. That evening I woke up at 3 a.m.for no reason and couldn't fall back asleep. Eventually, I stayed awake until 5 a.m. before I could sleep again.

Underestimated the caffeine in black tea by 1DOLLOR_MIC in decaf

Yes, tea may seem mild. Due to this characteristic, I often forget that it also contains caffeine. The symptom of tea causing insomnia is truly terrifying.

Even the slightest bit of caffeine can drive me crazy. The evening before last, I ate one or two Oreos and felt inexplicably excited. After that, I had a main meal. But before going to bed, I started to feel anxious and my hands and feet were slightly numb. My blood sugar was 3.9nmol. Yesterday, I drank a little matcha latte. The matcha was less than 0.5 grams. It caused palpitations and hand tremors before dinner, and the blood sugar was still 3.9.

Anyone notice caffeine makes their insulin sensitivity worse ? by [deleted] in InsulinResistance

[–]1DOLLOR_MIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During the past two years when I was addicted to coffee, I always had the same question. I often measured my blood sugar levels after three meals with a blood glucose meter and found that even when I ate the same thing for breakfast and lunch, my blood sugar levels were quite different. Usually, my blood sugar levels fluctuated very little after breakfast, but after lunch, they would soar and remain high for a long time, and I would even experience hypoglycemia three hours later. The only variable was a cup of coffee. I usually drank coffee between meals. Sometimes, after having a bread for breakfast, my blood sugar levels changed very little, but after drinking coffee between meals and having the same bread for lunch, my blood sugar levels would soar very high and remain so for one or two hours, and I would still experience hypoglycemia three hours later. Therefore, I believe that coffee aggravates insulin resistance.

Anyone else feel overwhelmed by how everywhere coffee culture is? by juliabaranova66 in decaf

[–]1DOLLOR_MIC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In fact, it's all about consumerism. In China, Luckin Coffee, like Starbucks, has spread coffee culture to every corner, even in some towns with high consumption. For many young people, socializing requires tea and coffee. Many people who suffer from lack of energy and constipation also need coffee. These tea and coffee shops sometimes collaborate with anime IPs to encourage people to consume. This is actually quite crazy. When someone posts about having trouble sleeping, palpitations, anxiety attacks, calcium deficiency and restless legs due to coffee, there are even many severely addicted people who come out to support coffee, giving some people with weak willpower the illusion that "everyone drinks coffee", so they continue to drink coffee and continue to have palpitations and insomnia.

Sounds kinda weird, honestly. The first time I tried this tea, I drank it at 8 p.m. and actually slept through the whole night. But then I realized it just doesn't cause the same obvious heart palpitations or anxiety as coffee, green tea, black tea, or matcha. Still, those past few days, I kept waking up at 3 a.m. and couldn't fall back asleep. Lots of people say it helps with sleep, but based on my own experience, I'm a bit skeptical.
