Hypoglycemia Printable Resources

5 things that may lead to Low Blood Glucose (Sugar) or Hypoglycemia (Graphic).

The ‘15-15 Rule’ is a way to treat low blood glucose (sugar) or hypoglycemia. It means take 15 grams of a fast carb such as half a glass of juice, wait 15 minutes, then check blood glucose again to see if it is above 70 mg/dL.

Hypoglycemia or low blood glucose is when blood glucose (sugar) drops below 70 mg/dL. How you feel when you are low may vary. Watch for these common ones.
