If you use the general rule of consuming 15 grams of glucose for a low bg,
then you made the right calculation. 2.5 rolls should do it. However, some
people know what their carb sensitivity is, meaning they know exactly how
much one gram of carb will raise their BG, thus consuming the exact amount
of glucose needed for their low according to the reading. Please discuss
this with your doctor or pump educator.
