The blood glucose can be raised to normal within minutes by taking (or receiving) 10-20 grams of carbohydrate. It can be taken as food or drink if the person is conscious and able to swallow. This amount of carbohydrate is contained in about 3-4 ounces (100-120 ml) of orange, apple, or grape juice, about 4-5 ounces (120-150 ml) of regular (non-diet) soda), about one slice of bread, about 4 crackers, or about 1 serving of most starchy foods. Starch is quickly digested to glucose, but adding fat or protein retards digestion. Symptoms should begin to improve within 5 minutes, though full recovery may take 10-20 minutes. Overfeeding does not speed recovery and if the person has diabetes will simply produce hyperglycemia afterwards.
Small, frequent meals with complex carbohydrates, fiber, and fat and avoiding simple sugars, alcohol, and fruit juice may be recommended. You should also eat meals at regular intervals, and balance extra exercise with extra food.
Please see the webpages for more details on Hypoglycemia.

First of all Hypoglycemia is rare and has to do with the pancreas. Hypoglycemia Reactivity is quite common. One can deter the affects of coming down due to this condition with a meat sandwich. Stay away from sugary foods like a soda for it makes your blood sugar shoot up then drastically down.

Simple sugar and then complex carbs. That will help maintain your blood sugar level over a number of hours. Hypoglycaemia in diabetics is serious as a coma can be induced and should always be managed with a quick dose of glucose then complex carbs to sustain the sugar level.
See http://www.diabetesuk.co.uk/ and a state registered dietician/nutritionist if it happens often, as well as your doctor.
Non diabetics should get their glucose level checked out by a doctor.
If you are a diabetic and on insulin- the greatest risk to hynpoglycaemia then always carry around some sweets with you for emergencies.

Things that breakdown slowly will help the most. Check out the American Diabetes Association's website. They have a good diet for diabetics and hypoglycemics.

Whole grains break down slowly and keep your insulin and blood sugar at consistent levels. You end up feeling fuller longer, have better energy, and they're better for your heart.

oranges, orange juice, lifesavers if you have to have candy and try getting the glucose tablets available at the pharmacy for emergencies to keep with you. You need complex carbohydrates as opposed to straight up sugar(candy) when your blood sugar is too low. Raisins are good and dried fruit too.

Glucose, a form of sugar, is an important fuel for your body. Carbohydrates are the main dietary sources of glucose. Rice, potatoes, bread, tortillas, cereal, milk, fruit, and sweets are all carbohydrate-rich foods.

How about a low glycemic carb such as rye bread, brown rice and lots of protien? Stay away from simple sugars as you will have a sugar crash and become a shake fest.

all the sugar heavy stuff if you are in real trouble, otherwise bread or digestive biscuits if you are just a bit low on sugar, otherwise your blood glucose levels will be swinging all over the place
