Subject: What do you eat when you're feeling light headed and shaky
If you are light headed and shaky because you haven't eaten for a while and are ill, sweetened tea or flat soda.
If you are lightheaded and shaky because you are overweight and dieting and haven't eaten for a bit, wait it out. Your body doesn't know how to easily switch to metabolizing fat and it is complaining about learning.
If you are simply short calories, eat protein. Greek yogurt--unsweetened or with fruit, meat, nuts, cheese.
If you are diabetic and on meds, take your blood sugar. If under 70, or under 80 and you feel bad, eat a protein-carb snack such as a few pb crackers, a pudding cup, or half a meat sandwich. Drink 4-6 oz of regular soda or fruit juice. Let your MD know so you can adjust your meds if this happens frequently.

very oddly - I have found fish sauce helpful at times like these - some Vietnamese vermicelli with fish sauce. I'm not south east asian, but I have found that flavor very helpful.

skip the oj--lots of acidity. skip the milk--dairy will make you congested
clear broth and plenty of fluids; plain crackers.
I was going to say chocolate milk too and I disagree with this. Milk may make YOU congested, but it doesn't have that effect on everyone.

any protein - for me, meat proteins works faster to calm the shaky feeling than nut proteins. Lox is ideal.

Glucose tabs - and no I am not diabetic but discovered them a while ago. They help for a little while.
