Re: low blood sugar (again)

[Guest guest]

,

I just had another thought. You need to eat something with

protein after you have managed to bring it up or it will

just drop back down again. A good thing to eat after low

blood sugar is a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (using

reduced fat peanut butter). Use a multigrain bread if

possible. Orange juice is good to bring the sugar up, but it

doesn't have any protein to keep it steady once you

bloodsugar rises.

The PB & J has all the things you need after a reaction.

Quick carbs from the jelly, protein in the peanut butter and

if you use a multigrain bread, complex carbos to help your

bloodsugar from dropping again. And if you have a glass of

skim milk, you have more protein to steady out the

bloodsugar. This is 21 years of experience as a diabetic

talking here. Hope this is of some help.
