Transcend Foods Orange Gel (1.1 oz, Pack of 10) Fast-acting Carb Gel Orange Flavor – Caffeine Free, Gluten Free

I purchased these pouches for my in laws as a healthier alternative to candy when their glucose levels drop. My in laws love the taste, say it spikes the sugar within 5 minutes, and keeps them at a healthy level. Pouches are small enough to store in the purse or keep it in your pocket when you are on the go. They are a little pricey, but it's worth it. We are constantly reordering and make sure we stick to this brand.

I tend to have candy or dextrose tabs around to help with lows, but with candy it’s hard to just snack on it while I’m out. I like the dextrose tabs, but they can be bulky. These pouches are something that tastes good and gets my blood sugar up quickly, especially since the gel is easy to keep in your cheek for quicker absorption. I’m not worried about someone else using these to treat a hypo either, they wouldn’t have to figure out how to get me to eat a gel. I had a bad low this last week and I saw pretty quick results from one of the packages. I’ll definitely keep them on me in the future

My husband uses these when his sugar drops and there’s nothing else available. It spikes up his sugar within minutes. It’s a bit expensive so we leave it for emergency cases but it’s very effective. He says the orange one is the best flavor. Easy to open the package, easy to swallow since it’s a thin gel.

I rely on this to raise my blood sugar

These are a handy way to make sure my blood sugar doesn't drop too much. I carry some in my car and in my travel bags if I'm going somewhere. If my blood sugar does drop, one of these will fix it in a hurry. I love the orange flavor as well.
