Dear hb30427,
it seems to me that your husband is
suffering from anxiety attacks that is
often associated with depression. As a
nutritional psychologist I am not in
favour in drug therapy, which should be
used only as a last resort.
People who are overproducing adrenaline
are inclined to be worrying about all
sorts of things.
The reason why some people overproduce
adrenaline is because the brain senses an
energy starvation caused by insulin
resistance, also called hypoglycemia.
The brain is entirely dependent on energy
derived form the sugars we eat, and when
there is an obstruction in the absorption
and metabolism of sugars, the brain is
starved of energy and hence trigger the
release of stress hormones like
adrenaline.
The treatment is going on a hypoglycemic
diet.
This condition can be medically tested by
a special test described at our web site
as:
“testing for hypoglycemia and how the
doctor can help” by dr george samra
sydney australia.
Please read:
“what is hypoglycemia?”
“beating anxiety”
“depression a nutritional disorder”
at our web site.
Please discuss with a doctor or other
therapist familiar with hypoglycemia and
nutritional disorders.
