sinus product dropping blood sugar?

I'm taking this product for my sinuses (to avoid antibiotics)
https://www.wishgardenherbs.com/her...roic-Rescue-622
as it's supposed to be fantastic however today I felt like my blood sugar was dropping a lot. I am not diabetic but can be prone to hypoglycemia at times.

I just felt so much hungrier and a bit shaky. Any ideas?

I like to use Silver Sinus. It's colloidal silver. Kills everything including fungus. I've been using it for years.
Really is a good product

Elderflower affects blood sugar, similar to cinnamon. But just being sick can cause the symptoms you describe.

I've never once had luck with colloidal silver despite snorting it for ages. It's never worked for any infection I've had of any sort despite what others say.

Thanks so much WereBear. I feel so awful! I am now wondering if the Throat Comfort tea could be bothering me, and the Sudafed which is the ONLY thing that gives me relief. I never had sinus issues and now get them twice a year :-(

Today I was beyond HUNGRY, I was weak and shaky and would have killed for some sugar. I am at my wits end. Also I ate breakfast this morning which I had stopped doing the first week of Atkins. I had 2 small lunches (OP), and dinner by 5:00. Now I want to go to bed.

Low carb was so much easier when I felt good!

Oh, sick sucks

My own sinus issues turned out to be hormonally related, aggravated by fumes from a brand new office my company moved into. Hope you get a grip on it, so agonizing!

Stress and then, too much cortisol were behind my own problems. Never had a sinus infection in my life, and suddenly I got four in one year!
