Better Tasting Glucose Tablets
I just finished the business plan for this idea. Better tasting gummy-consistency glucose tablets need to be a thing as they aren’t out yet. The powdered kind of glucose tablets tastes nasty. All I have to do is go on Shark Tank to show the judges the way the old glucose tablets taste, and how newer, better, gummy-consistency glucose tablets work better. Candy is one way to bring your blood sugar up when low, but it is not that great of a method because you could over dose. Candy is simply an emergency measure, because glucose tablets do work better.
This morning, I woke up with my blood sugar at 36. To cope, I took four glucose tablets, and a yogurt. Then I was stable enough to make my morning eggs. My blood sugar has gone up since then. I’m busy writing up a storm today, as I want to get my work done since I feel motivated. My better tasting glucose tablets would make it easier for diabetics to get their blood sugar up. Juice works quickly but not fast enough. Glucose gel is a fast-acting treatment for type 1 diabetes low blood sugars. Low blood sugar is a side effect of using insulin.
Sometimes lows feel cleansing. Admittedly, sometimes having good control hinges on the occasional 90. Then again I have hypoglycemia unawareness. This means I do not always know I’m low. Yes, scary. I live by myself with this condition. I try my best to keep it together. Lows make one hungry, hungry enough to eat a lot, to eat like a pregnant woman or to clean out an entire refrigerator if delusional enough. Lows can make even non-schizoaffective type 1s temporarily delusional. This is why I want to invent a better tasting glucose tablet type.
