Hypoglycemia and Alcoholism

[admin]

Alcoholics Anonymous cofounder Bill Wilson was very interested in the
link between alcoholism and hypoglycemia. He collected research papers
demonstrating the extent of abnormal glucose fluctuations among
alcoholics and sent three different reports on the subject to AA
physicians. Wilson's interest was personal as well as professional. For
many years, he suffered from depression and other hypoglycemic
symptoms. He also consumed huge amounts of sugar and caffeine. Finally,
by eliminating sugar and caffeine and making other dietary changes, he
stabilized his blood sugar and achieved a sense of well-being.
