Dr. Yang Ziqi
People with low blood sugar should choose the following types of food to quickly raise blood glucose levels and maintain stable blood sugar concentrations: 1. High-sugar foods: Such as candy, chocolate, and biscuits, which can be rapidly absorbed by the body to increase blood sugar levels. 2. Fruit juices: Natural sugar-rich juices such as orange juice and apple juice are also good choices for quickly raising blood sugar. 3. Starchy foods: Such as rice, steamed buns, and bread, which contain a large amount of carbohydrates that can be converted into glucose in the body, thereby increasing blood sugar levels. 4. High-fiber foods: Although high-fiber foods themselves do not directly raise blood sugar, they help stabilize blood sugar concentrations, such as oats, brown rice, and Job's tears.
