Today we will be featuring two very special products. They are special because, as the title suggests, they are completely unrelated. Where as normally our featured products maintain some kind of common theme or trait, today's picks are completely random.
Diabetes care has really come a long way. In ancient times diabetics were requires to check their blood with little more than sharpened stones. The bronze age brought about some improvements but bronze needles tended to bend easily. The iron age, while huge for the plate armor industry, actually saw little in the way of care for diabetes patients. In those days doctor forms had pretty much one question: "Do you have the plague? ( ) Yes ( ) No" Henry Ford actually aspired to put a diabetes testing kit in every home in America until he was informed that not everyone in America had diabetes. He reluctantly turned to manufacturing automobiles, but I digress. The OneTouch Ultra 2 System is the latest in blood monitor systems from Lifescan. A single microliter of blood (that's barely a spec) is enough to deliver results in just 5 seconds. Samples can be taken from the finger forearm or palm. The Ultra 2 features before and after meal testing to give you the most accurate measurement of how your dietary practices effect your glucose levels. Now, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the greatest product to ever come from DMESupplyGroup. The Medline Purrfect Opener. What does it do, you ask? What if I said everything. That's right everything. The Purrfect Opener is the one tool that every pill taker should own. This single device aids in all of the following; splitting pills, pushing pills through foil, pushing off medicine caps, opening childproof caps, removing cotton (I hate those things), and opening pull tabs. You might say "Could not all of these functions be provided by a fork from my kitchen?" Possibly, but is your fork shaped like an adorable kitten? I should say not. That is why you must buy the Purrfect Opener today! (also available in the shape of a dog). Check out these and many other great products at www.DMESupplyGroup.com.

I'll be completely honest. I'm one of those people who walk into one of those stores full of massage chairs and just sit in the chairs for 30 minutes or more. I'm not going to buy anything. I'm not even interested in the details of the chair I'm sitting in. The only reason I'm in the store is for the free massage service. And every time I'm in that situation I think, man this would be awesome to have at home.
Today's featured products offer you some of that comfort found only at the mall, in an item that can be used just about anywhere. Let's start at the top, with your head. Well, your neck really. The Shiatsu Massage Ultra Plush Pillow from Complete Medical makes it easier than ever to get a deep kneading massage right where you 'knead' it. It features massage and heat options wrapped in a luxurious soft pillow. One thing I've always noticed about even the most expensive back massage systems is that you are limited as to where those little massaging nodes will reach. They never do quite reach just the right spot. The massaging pillow fixes this problem. The self contained massage system can be placed in any position from your neck to the small of your back. It can even be used in the car, that is assuming you have some kind of power adapter or drive a Pontiac Vibe. You Vibe owners know what I'm talking about. Our second product could also be used in the car, though I'd bring a load of towels with me because there's going to be a mess to clean up when you arrive at your destination. What could be a better compliment to relaxing neck massage than a rejuvenating foot massage? How does heat and vibration settings, soothing bubbles, 4 massaging rollers, and 6 water jets sound? All of these can be found in the Conair Massaging Foot Spa. Actually, now that I think about it, it's probably best not to use it in the car even if you are willing to clean up the mess. If you're anything like me, in the event of a required emergency stop, you'd rather take the hit than pull your feet away from foot heaven to hit the brake. Check out these and many other massage therapy products available at DMESupplyGroup.com. Now with FREE STANDARD SHIPPING available!

It's the nearly Christmas. Which means two things. First, it means presents. Lots and lots of presents. Heaping piles of gratuitous materialism. However, it also means travel. It's time to load up the family fun wagon and make the trek to see our loved ones... so they can give us presents. It's important to remember that vacation is not the time to take off from our efforts to stay healthy and safe. So today we have a couple products to be sure to include in those overnight bags.
To start we have a handy little gadget that is going to come in handy as soon as it comes times to get in the car. Years ago I can remember my great grandmother having trouble getting out of the car. She would have to get rocking back and forth to build up the momentum to get to her feet. Most of the time it took someone else to come around to her side of the car and help her. As a result she was always the last person out of the car, and by the time she got in line at Golden Corral all the garlic bread was gone. Oh grandmother how your life would have been better, and your breath slightly more garlicy, if you had only had the Handybar Entry/Exit Handle. With no installation necessary the Handybar hooks to the frame of 99% of all vehicles (it wont fit a Delorean) and allows the user to pull themselves easily to a standing position or lower themselves gently down. It has a soft non-slip handle and even features a seat belt cutter and glass breaker in case of emergency. Now grandma will be first in line even if you arrive at Golden Corral upside down. Now after grandma has finished off that last helping of soft-serve and gets back in the car. It's going to be time to check her blood sugar. Luckily she will have brought her Dia-Pak Deluxe Diabetic Organizer. In it she will have easy access to all her testing supplies. And don't worry about having left her insulin in the car because the included cold pack has kept it nice and cool. With the Dia-Pak in tow grandmother will be good to go with enough testing supplies to last as long as two weeks. Somewhere Wilford Brimley is smiling. ("diabeetuss") Lets stay healthy this holiday season. DMESupplyGroup wants to wish all of our customers Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

First off, doctors are good. Do not stop using them. Today's title was just the best way I could think of to lead off our featured product article about self/home diagnostics.
It never hurts to be able to do things on your own. From doing your own home repair or improvement to running your own business or website. We all find pride and satisfaction from the feeling of accomplishing things all by ourselves. However very few people realize how easy it can be to take charge of our own health. Sure we all have our bathroom scales that we step on occasionally, but what about monitoring more critical things like body fat or blood pressure. Most people leave these things to the doctors. The downside being that they are clueless to how things are going until the next time they come into the clinic. Don't be that person. Take charge of your own health with a few simple home health products from DMESupplyGroup. The best things about the Omron Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor is that you don't even to be at home to use it. It's small and light weight enough to go with you anywhere. Monitor your heartrate while on your morning walk or check the effect a discussion with your boss has on your bloodpressure. Save your results in up to 60 memory slots to share them with your doctor the next time you do pay him/her a visit. Unless, of course, your boss IS your doctor. Then you might choose not to share all your results. The Omron unit runs on 2 AAA batteries and comes with a 5 year warranty! Our next product is one that many of you may be affraid to use. It's the Bodylogic Body Fat Analyzer. That's right, we now have the technology for a small handheld device to tell you how objectivley fat you are. Don't hate the device, it's just doing its job. The Bodylogic provides you results in as few as 7 seconds and works for weight ranges from 23 to 440.5 lbs. At 441 lbs it just hurls insults at you designed to motivate you to lose weight. I'm kidding of course. We're all friends here. Now be honest, who of you when you saw this device didn't imediatly think it looks like a steering wheel? I say strap this thing to the business end of your steering shaft and measure your body fat while stuck in traffic. (DMESupplyGroup is not liable for any damages resulting from using any of our products as steering wheels). Stop by DMESupplyGroup.com and now get FREE standard shipping!!!
