Thanks, all! You've all been very helpful.

I went to our local grocery store today to pick up some things for the basket. I looked at the protein bars. My, my! There are lots of bars out there. They sure are not cheap either! There were no Atkins bars available. The lowest carb bar I could find were these "Solid Protein" bars with 11 g carbs. I tried to use the LC tools to calculate hidden carbs but I'm not sure I did it right. Anyway, it said that in reality, this bar has 26 g of carbs. Would that be bad for a hypoglycemic, who has no weight problem, to eat as a snack?

Another question: How many carbs / day could I tell this fella would be considered 'safe' to have. 50 - 60 g carbs daily?
