White bread and other simple carbs turn to sugar instants after being ingested, and have the same negative effect on the body of someone with reactive hypoglycemia. In order to prevent the blood sugar spike and crash that comes as a result of eating simple carbs, a reactive hypoglycemia diet must be free of these foods.

Learn to love fat. Healthy fats are a valuable part of the reactive hypoglycemic's diet. Fats, such as those found in eggs, avocados, and macadamia nuts, help you to feel satisfied, and slow the absorption of sugars into the bloodstream.
