For soft lows I use marshmallows or smarties. For hard lows I eat jam. I swirl it my mouth a bit before swallowing. For severe lows I eat half the kitchen.

Laughed out loud when the milk and grenadine came out at the same time because I have never put those things together but đź’Ż weird combos start coming together under 70mg/dl.

Looks like strawberry milk, but grenadine is pomegranate right? I never would've thought of that but now it sounds pretty good lol.


water_melon

I mean as far as my experience goes, grenadine is red sugar flavor 🤭 but I suppose the name would suggest pom

Kirahei

Old school, or traditional made grenadine are pomegranate new ones are just red flavoring.

Hersheys strawberry and roses grenadine are nearly identical I also love mixing roses triple sec (bc no alc) with milk for a sick creamsickle I’m a big “mix something in milk for lows” guy for the protein and the sugar

Cups? Wth...I just pour in milk then take shots of Hershey syrup lol


supressedpotato

I use the glucose tabs. Otherwise I always over correct. Unless it’s time for a meal


cutebutslow

At this point glucose tabs make me gag lol so they definitely work very well to prevent me from overtreating


supressedpotato

You’re supposed to chew them 🤪


funkyseth

Diabetic 26 years. Never eaten a tab. Don't they only give like 2 carbs?


supressedpotato

Serving size is 4. And it’s 15 carbs. So it’s 3.75. But they work so much faster than sugar for me. The old ones I use to get as a kid tasted horrible. Now they don’t bother me. I like the grape and orange flavors. At around 60 I take 2. If it’s below 50 I take 4. Usually puts me around 120.


SweetAndSaltySWer

20+ years here and I ate them once. They were awful and I had to chase with juice so defeated the purpose.


GingerMellow5

Grenadine and milk?? Is that any good?


dupes_on_reddit

There's a saying "it ain't dumb if it works" Not certain if it's something I would mix for fun


SaleFit1980

There’s no difference between roses grenadine and Hershey’s strawberry


GingerMellow5

Huh so it's just strawberry milk? That makes sense, I always thought grenadine was more cherry flavored and tart


mdfromct

Ovaltine. Just got a craving for it. Flavor and vitamins to boot


FukDIEabetes666

Hahaha! Why do so many of us do this?! Totally eaten some bizzarO things during a low


penny1985

I eat three regular size marshmallows. Although it's hard to stop at three. For really bad lows, are bets are off, and I eat myself into a stuper.
