Someone uses glucody pills and gels for descents.I have doubts since they are very few grams and I do not know if the glucose quickly goes up.You know some gel or pills that can be bought in pharmacy to avoid peaks

Juice or better nectar, which already carries separate sugar.It is fast to be water with fructose.

And much cheaper.

I have the pills for when it is little, because with the juice I hit a rise (and its subsequent descent) ... so if I have no very accused trend and not low of 60 soil to use the pills.As far as I know, 6 pills are 15g of HC, I think the gel (which I have not tried) is 12g.To me a pill climbs around my 25-30 ... I took them with strawberry (I did not dare with those of lemon) and they know me the same as those necklaces and bracelets that were in the 80s (I think that later, but I do not assure it) that the "accounts" were sweets ... what you have to take into account is that there are pills that are harder and others less.

If I see that the trend is very down, I take a juice, but with the juice then I have to be more pending to the descent after the climb.
