I guess it’s simpler to get at what I’m getting at more directly: Look into iodine deficiency, and see if that could be a cause. -Especially- if you have strong negative reactions to high-carbohydrate foods, as reactive hypoglycemia is one of the less common symptoms. (It’s one I get, actually, which is why I’m aware of it; white rice knocks me out of commission when I haven’t been taking regular iodine supplements.)
I don’t have strong negative reactions to high-carbohydrate foods (they sometimes make me tired). The symptoms of iodine deficiency seem pretty severe and inconsistent with my experience.
Do you crave salty food, or salt food more than most other people?
I don’t know. How would I test that?
