I have in the past had a handful to help raise my sugars when they were getting low. I have never used them to treat a major hypo before but they are easy to eat, not much chewing involved and they are extremely sweet so I would guess if any fruit were to help treat hypoglycemia the humble grape would be a strong contender!!
I chose this smiley because of its close resemblance to the fruit in question....

People whose attitude says "Me, my opinion, my desire is greater and more important than anyone else"
And to whom the principle of ahimsa is a closed book that they refuse to open because it would make life more difficult for them.
When I was diagnosed the dietician they sent me to called grapes "little bags of sugar" - which I thought incredibly descriptive!
I've never had them as a hypo treatment but for a minor one, I guess there's no reason why not!
