Yes, when you lack glucose somewhat, extra glucose
is the difference between night and day.
And yes, sugar is unique as its relationship to brain chemistry is very direct, as it is utilized so quickly.
(as opposed to protein > amino acids)
And yes, only when you are able to 'lightly dance around' your glucose needs, its so easy to monitor it.
Struggling to get your glucose needs does not allow for much 'sitting on the mountain top having that over view'.

I don't believe any of the BS about sugar being bad for you anymore
Well, now that you are able to play with it, you may accidentally take in a little too much of it,
and then you will feel that this doesnt feel too good either.
The secret is 'that sweet spot'; no more, no less.
I wonder what it would feel like (besides expensive) to consume a gallon of OJ/day. RRM? Don't you drink about that much? I'm guessing you still add sugar?
Yes. And yes, im still adding sugar because for my job im often speed-walking for 8 to sometimes 10 hours straight,
so that i need about twice as much energy as i would normally do.
It makes me extremely energetic; able to move mountains, work like a horse with the stamina of a donkey.
Colleagues are always impressed by how hard i work; doing my own share plus helping everybody.
They dont know that this is not me, but the constantly abundant glucose and fructose.
For people just starting, trust the sugar. It's cheap. It's perfect. It's energy. It's cheap, perfect, energy. It's life, and it'll do wonders for your brain.
Yes, though it doesnt contain any other nutrients, thats totally unimportant once you got sufficient of all those nutrients already.
Which is the case on this diet normally; as on this diet you will consume sufficient of all those nutrients,
and in those circumstances, sufficient glucose makes all the difference in the world.
God I hope this isn't some kinda manic sugar episode!
Its your situation that makes your experience a bit extreme;
the lifetime depletion; the final discovery.
It will settle down, though you will always keep appreciating the energy from sugar.
