Answers:
Good call!.

To KEEP your blood sugars up you need to eat food that digest more slowly, or foods that prevent sugars from digesting!.

Sugars (glucose, sucrose, fructose, lactose, etc) digest quickly!. that's why the candy made you feel better!. But it goes away quickly!.

You need to eat less sugars and more starches!. Starches are very complex sugars that are difficult to digest!. These include potatoes, pastas, wheat flour (breads, crackers), and rice!.

And you ALSO want to keep these in your system for as long as possible, so increase you intake of fibers -- green vegetables and whole grains!. Cereals like Cheerios and Shredded Wheat are good for you!

Simply put -- reduced the number of sugars in your diet (especially colas, sports drinks, and energy drinks) and eat more starch and fibers!.

If you concentrate on a well-balanced diet you shouldn't have any more problems!.
