The points I took from it are those eloquently pointed out by @Eric in the original post. It’s just nice learning that the brain has this constant supply of glucose. Additionally, knowing that there is no real scientific evidence linking lows to mental issues, lack of mental accuity, brain damage or becoming mentally stunted. There are very real threats of hypos and those should always be taken seriously…but being overly afraid of them is offset by the knowledge that the brain does have this constant supply. So, having that knowledge and working toward always making sure Liam is “in and out quickly” (for both highs and lows), that’s eliminated my personal “fear of lows”. That’s what I take from the GLUT3 enzyme knowledge.
My Endo preaches a “gloom and doom” view of lows…I don’t share that based on what I now know.
