If you are experiencing low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), here are some steps to help bring it back to a normal range:
-
Consume Fast-Acting Carbohydrates: Eat or drink something with 15-20 grams of fast-acting carbs, such as:
- Glucose tablets or gel
- Fruit juice
- Regular soda (not diet)
- Candy (like jellybeans)
-
Recheck Blood Sugar: Wait 15 minutes and recheck your blood sugar. If it’s still low, repeat the process.
-
Follow Up with a Snack: Once your blood sugar is back to normal, eat a small snack with protein and carbs to stabilize it (e.g., peanut butter crackers or cheese and crackers).
If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention immediately.
