[QUOTE="ert, post: 2120926, member: 504712"] Dafne recognises hypos as below 3.5 mmol/L. If your blood sugars are this low then you should have 2 CPs of rapid-acting carbohydrate (equivalent to 100-120 ml Lucozade, 150-200ml cola or fruit juice, 5 glucose tablets). This is the best way to normalise your blood glucose as it will raise it by 4 - 6 mmol/l at the most. If your blood sugars are between 3.5 and 5 mmol/L you can have a snack of 10 grams of carbs, like a small apple to raise your blood sugars 2 to 3 mmol/L. [/QUOTE]
