I carry a film canister of jelly beans as my emergency low blood sugar
item. Yesterday was the annual refresh the stock routine,,,but I had some
of them.

End of the day testing was alarming. Blood sugar was far lower than
expected. Seems the particular packet of Nestles Jelly beans isn't good
for the reason I carry. Yes, the ingredients does start of sugar, glucose,
but it seems that they might be a token amount.

I'll do another testto ensure that the peak didn't come and go very fast,
but that brings upthe questions as to which are the brands made the
old way of lots of sugar?

Follow up is an apple btw.

Personally, I carry the glucose tablets. They're fast, cheap, come in
different flavors, and come in a small easy to carry tube. You can find them
at any drug store in the diabetes section.

Are you sure you didnt get sugar free jelly beans. How many did you
eat.

Jelly Belly is the brand for me.

I once tried to buy some sugar free jelly beans, and was told they don't
exist.
