This depends on how quickly this needs to be done. If your blood sugar levels are critically and dangerously low, you want to opt for a high sugar refined carbohydrate. This will enter the bloodstream at a rapid rate and increase your blood sugar levels just as quickly. The more ideal method is to consume a snack that will slowly increase your blood sugar levels and that will maintain it at this level for some time. This includes snacks like whole fruits, toast with peanut butter, yogurt and nuts.

If the blood glucose is low, it is important that the snack has fast-absorbing carbohydrates, such as fruits, jam, bread, even sweets can be useful at these times.
