[QUOTE="mrman, post: 439495, member: 40510"] Basically anything with 10~15 carbs in, lower gi the better, just something to last before next meal. A digestive is approx 10 carbs, other plain biscuits would do but check carbs on them (may need 2). Even a snack size choc bar would be ok as an extra treat, as the fat in it slows down the absorption of sugar. Plain choc better than caramel filed ones lol. one of the plain belvita milk cereal bars has 8.5 carbs each, these are handy follow on hypo snacks. If the hypo is due to activity a larger snack portion may be required as the extra exercise may continue to drop levels. Would add if the next meal is 30~40 mins way the lucozade should be sufficient without the follow on snack.
