NATURAL TREATMENTS FOR HYPOGLYCEMIA:
Eliminate sugar from the diet. This also means no cakes, candies, cookies, ice cream, sweetened cereal, canned fruit, and frozen desserts. In addition, you must learn to read food labels to find hidden sources of sugar. See text on how to assess a food label.
Avoid simple carbohydrates and refined and processed foods such as instant rice and potatoes, white flour, soft drinks, and alcohol.
Eat a diet high in complex carbohydrates and fiber, both of which help to stabilize blood sugar. Try to stick to the most natural, unprocessed form of a food.
Eat regular meals at regular times. Don't skip meals. Don't eat late meals. Have protein at both lunch and dinner.
Eliminate alcohol and smoking.
Limit your caffeine intake to one caffeinated beverage--coffee or tea --daily. Watch out for caffeinated soft drinks and over-the-counter drugs.
Eliminate the use of artificial sweeteners.

Eating right is your best bet. A balanced diet is key to keeping your sugar levels up and where they should be. But if you are having a regular problem with hypoglycemia you may want to carry glucose tablets (available at your local pharmacy) or even hard candies around with you, so when you start feeling the effects you can take one. Good Luck

Hypoglycemia needs to be treated ASAP. You should bring a pack of hard candy such as LiveSavers, Glucose tablets, Glucose gell... to bring your BG up. Then please go eat something with protein to maintain that BG or it will go down again pretty fast.

The problem is because you have aggressive production of insulin in response to eating carbohydrates. Eat small amounts of complex carbohydrates and eat 6-9 meals a day. (SMALL ONES!!!!) You want to have the same volume of food you eat in 3 meals spread over more time.

Milk will bring up blood sugars faster than anything else. But don't have it try glucose tabs. At least those you can keep in your car and purse!
