Will never stop purchasing
If you are diabetic, these are ESSENTIAL. These fit perfectly in a pocket or in a wallet so it’s always with you. Let’s be honest, sometimes your stomach is full and you just don’t feel like eating candy or a sweet drink to raise your sugar when you accidentally over compensated with insulin. That’s when these come in handy. They don’t fill you up but they help your sugar stabilize within minutes. After repurchasing these packs for years, I would only change a few things to make them even better:I wish the tear indicator was set diagonal across the edge instead of horizontal across the top. This way, when you’re low and incompetent, it’s easy to aim the contents of this packet into your mouth with a smaller opening than opening the entire top, risking getting it all over your face and clothes.Another change I would implement would be to reduce the size of the packet to the size of a credit card. That way it would fit into more items purses, heck, even into your bra, unnoticed.Another change would be to add a emergency notice on the package saying if a person is unresponsive, to call 911. It could save a life.Besides those minor things, these packets have saved my life countless times. Please never stop selling these!

Quick fix for a low BG...
These are a quick fix for a low BG. Small package that can go anywhere, even your back pocket. Sometimes we use it straight up for a low. Other times we mix it into a water bottle for strenuous exercise, like the trampoline park. A little sip of that water helps keep the BG in a good range. Only tried one flavor so far...

SO happy to find Green Apple again!!
Throughout my diabetic life (18 years) glucose tablet flavors have come and gone. My favorite, which some people seem to hate, was the big white BD orange cream type flavor. They discontinued those years ago. So then I found my new fav Green apple, then a few years ago they were no longer to be found. I started using other things such as candy and juice boxes to treat my lows but those lead to rebound highs and then crashing down again. Also they were large to carry unlike a tube of glucose tablets. So anyways, I'm super happy to find these. They are so easy to use/carry and are yummy. I hate the price but.. well, that's diabetes. I'll probably only continue to buy the 4 pack.

This stuff is life saving
We have been getting these for a few months now. We’ve tried others but my husband just doesn’t like the taste of those-he says these taste like pixisticks.They works QUICKLY, which is essential. We have a box in his office, in the kitchen, and a few on his bedside.Before we got these, he had THREE seizures before we figured out what was happening. We are new to this, so we didn’t realize they were seizures-it was terrifying. These have changed everything for us.It helps that his FSA card covers it as well!

Easy to use in a Diabetic Emergency!
This was a recommendation for my mother by a home nurse. Mom was having trouble chewing the hard glucose tablets when she was having a low blood sugar episode. This is a game changer. Mom said it just dissolves in her mouth (no chewing necessary) and she feels it works faster than the hard tablets. I highly recommend this product if you have diabetes or are caring for a diabetic. Sometimes if the low blood suger episode is bad enough it can actually be dangerous to have them chew on tablets or even drink orange juice. This is a great product!

Treats low blood sugars promptly
Convenient and portable: can be placed anywhere for emergencies. They are expensive but efficient and glucose, not dextrose. So. total sugar here vs. OJ is good. It works at calming degrees raising low sugars so much better. I saw reviews and had to try it. To open it, when my hands are SHAKING!!! and I'm not going to find scissors is difficult. I have a small mouth, so adjust how much gets open accordingly as the powder comes out quickly. All that said, flavors are good a d I will continue to buy-thanks!

so helpful!
I wasnt sure about getting these. I wasn't sure about the taste, texture or how effective it was. My daughter has T1D and I cannot leave the normal snacks in her bag because she eats them all and drinks can open and get everywhere. So we decided to try this after seeing other T1D's on tiktok rave about them and after we had some scary lows where we went to get a snack and nothing was there. It has saved her butt a couple times already and we have only had them for two weeks. She says the taste isn't bad, that it taste similar to EmergenC or Airborn. It brings her up FAST, faster than a fruit snack ever would. 8 minutes from what we timed. I like the way it is packaged. It wont open and get everywhere. Its tiny and thin so can be put almost anywhere. Will definitely be buying more.
