My niece is 7 and was diagnosed with diabetes last summer. In the past couple weeks her blood sugar is dropping dramatically during the night. They have been in touch with their doctor who changed their bedtime routine but they have heard of something call “NiteBite bars” and would like to know if anyone has heard of them.
