Yeah I've looked it up and that seems to be it, not much to do about it except eat little and often - I just keep snacks in my bag and my family & friends know when I get grumpy they need to track down some food! For the headaches I just try and make sure I get enough sleep, don't sleep in, and constantly drink water through the day. It's not too bad, I just wish I didn't have to always keep it in mind

Yeah this is really interesting, I also don't have diabetes or anything but if I haven't eaten in a while I get hangry, then I start to shake and feel faint. I'm also super prone to bad headaches if I'm slightly tired or dehydrated. Never thought about it possibly being linked

Reply to A new study has found that a gene variant that causes a flush reaction after alcohol consumption also increases inflammation and impacts circulation. This finding could explain why individuals carrying this gene variant also have an increased risk of developing a common type of heart disease. by rjmsci
Interesting, I flush when I drink and I also have Reynauds so my circulation obviously isn't brilliant

So you're saying I can keep my pockets full of babybels and call it medicinal? Awesome
