Hi, everyone. I started d-ribose powder 4 days ago. I'm doing the go low, go slow approach. I'm taking about 1.5 grams after my morning (which is late afternoon/evening) food, today I took less than 1 gram. I've noticed I'm feeling extra wired but tired and anxious. Strange cause this hits me hours later and then hours after I wake up, too. This anxious feeling is new to me.
Woke up this morning very crashed and spacey. Generally don't feel spacey. Foggy yes, but not this kind of spacey. At times can barely read or take words in. After I took it today and the first day I took it, I became very sleepy and spacey and cold.
Was wondering if the tired but wired and anxious was my body adjusting to the changes this is creating and if I should go lower and continue days longer and see how this goes? I had high hopes that this could help me, I really, really need to have more energy.
As far as my fatigue after eating, ? - hoping it's not a reactive hypoglycemia reaction, thought maybe it's too much food in a short period of time, it generally takes me 4 or more hours to slowly eat because can't get out of bed to dish things out, with taking ribose been eating my food in a 1/2 hour to an hour. My food: 1 cup yogurt, 1/2 cup soy milk, a little packet of oatmeal (no sugar) and raisins, and a teaspoon of olive oil.
Any thoughts, I tried to read this thread again, but my brain can't take the more involved parts in right now. Thank you.
