I have Non-diabetic hypoglycemia, and have battled this my entire life. Apparently my body makes too much insulin. The standard treatment for low blood sugar (glass of orange juice or a piece of candy) does not work for me. It does raise the blood sugar, but then in an hour will cause body to produce a huge bunch of insulin that shoots the blood sugar even lower and causes me to pass out. I have learned to control it with diet. I rarely eat sugar and keep carbs to a minimum of carbs found in fruit and vegetables (sort of those in a paleo type diet). Early morning is a crucial time and I need mainly protein then. Doctors don’t seem to be able to offer any helpful advice about this condition and I have had to rely mainly on my own research.

My question is…… would the vitamin K be helpful or would it just cause me to create even higher levels of insulin?
