| I have capri-suns at work and home. I sometimes carry that energy gel stuff that body builders use. I found one at Sports Authority with exactly 15 grams of carb and it is only about 2 tablespoons. I can't stand eating a lot of sugar when I am low. I want relief fast and easy.
I do have one tube with glucotabs in them inside. I placed that tube inside this thing I got at the pharmacy at Walmart called "Vial of Life." It is a prescription looking vial that you put in your glove box with your medical information and a sticker on your car (medical personnel are supposed to know to look for it). I have been fortunate that I have never been unconsciously low. But I tend to be superstitious that the day I am not prepared for a low, is the day I will go unconsciously low.
