[QUOTE="catapillar, post: 1234878, member: 32394"] Glucojuice. Dextrose tablets. Lucozade. Jelly babies. Orange juice. I was told sugar that you would put in coffee wouldn't work as fast as dextrose tablets - apparently sugar isn't as high GI as dextrose. Anything that's adding fat in to the glucose (biscuits cake etc) ain't gonna work as fast (as you were asking about the quickest, but are fine for if you aren't too low and need something to top you up). But it is important to follow up the fast acting glucose with something more complex to make sure you don't fall again, biscuits are good for that :) [/QUOTE]
