I'm hoping the lowcarb industry strengthens if you ask me. I'm hypoglycemic, so I need to eat high-protein, low carb foods. I'm starting to see more and more products as of late, which is great.

I disagree. I find this diet fad to be annoying; therefore, I advocate the elimination of all low-carb products.

I'm inclined to be hyper-fat-emic, left to my own devices; so low-carb continues to be a "must" for me.

Wouldn't that be the diet for someone who is hyper-glycemic?

Hypoglycemia is low blood sugar and would be helped by increased carbs which are quickly converted to sugars by the body.

The problem with most of those products is that they are way over priced. The companies have been cashing in on this trend but are pricing themselves out of the market in the long run. It is cheaper to just eat low on the gylcemic (sp?) index with lots of fresh products. I don't know about you but the over all rise in grocery costs has been a burden for us. This is mostly due to the extra cost for transportation due to high gas prices. I know that our buying habits have changed greatly. High priced low carb products plus the general rise in grocery costs is just not in our budget. I would suspect the same is true for many others besides ourselves.
